> Perhaps you can look into Gabitril (tiagabine). It is a relatively new anticonvulsant that I don't think I have seen anyone here try. It was mentioned as something to try by a doctor with whom I consulted last year. I suffer from bipolar depression. I have certainly placed it on my list, although I have not researched it enough to be comfortable to take it sight unseen.

I would revisit Topamax in the future, though at a lower dosage, if the Lamictal doesn't pan out. So far, so good; I'm takin' it much slower than the Topamax. I learned my lesson.

How much B-Vitamin Complex did you take to reduce the tingling and confusion problems?
