Hi, i am newly diagnosed as BipolarI, and the p-doc had me taking lithum, which caused extreme exhaustion, vomiting, diarrhea and I had floaters in my vision. He told me to stop taking it and just take my Ativan for my anxiety. I feel really out of sorts... messed up actually. I have two questions ...
1. How long before this Lithium gets out of my system?
2. What else is there for me to take since I cannot tolerate lithium? I do NOT want to feel like a vegetable and need to be able to function on a day to day basis to care for my two small children.
Any advice or words of encouragement will be appreciated. Thanks
