> Anna, sounds like a plan. Also, click on this link to another thread I posted in today for some good lamictal links in addition to the Dr. Ivan Goldberg one I posted earlier in this very thread (click on the one by the doctor as he has familiarity with lamictal):

It does sound better that the rash has not gotten worse since you started ... but, again, with the increase in dosage now, you should really have it monitored by someone (somehow!?) who knows what they are looking at it.

I liken him to a future Bob Dylan ... he even sings a song about Bob Dylan's beard. :) ]phillybob - I checked out the thing you sent. Jah seems only to be on a small dosage of Lamotragine, and doesn`t say whether this will be increased. I wonder if it will (Jah, if you are reading this, could you let me know - cheers). I`m actually quite concerned about this huge increase; the only reason I can think of, is that they are concerned that I be kept on a high level of something whilst I undergo the transition. I am really quite ill already (immobilised by the severity of the depression much of the time) The last time I came off meds altogether, I was very nearly catatonic. This may be a factor, I don`t know. Anyway, I`ll still check it out.
Never heard of `Wilco` (presumably an American band - we don`t get to hear much U.S. stuff over here). As for Bob Dylan`s beard, I always thought it was a poor excuse of a beard! (mind you I was only about 2 when he first grew it, so I didn`t have an opinion one way or the other. I prefer him without, although perhaps he should grow one now; I reckon he looks a lot like an old lady (mind you, I think he`s 60 this year).
Anna.
