> Hi Roo-

Check out my other recent post at: http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/20010708/msgs/69446.html for more info about my med history including Lamictal.

As to side effects, other than the temporary ones that I mention in that post, I would say no problems, including weight gain. I am very slowly losing weight gained on other meds- if I were actually trying to lose weight consistently, I'm sure that I could..

Since I work out in the sun, and have for many years, and have fair skin, I have to really smear on the sunscreen. I try to remember to wear a hat when I'm working (I hate hats), and to put my sunglasses on (I get caught up in my work and forget). I haven't noticed any adverse effects, other than regular sunburn if I forget or don't reapply the sunscreen, and regular eyestrain if I forget the sunglasses.

Yes, my depression is slowly, but definitely, letting go.

Good luck,
Cece
