just thought i'd jump in on my lam dosage increase saga. i started at 25 and stayed on that for 3 weeks. then we tried to move to 50 and i got these small red blotches on my chest and neck. i cut the 25 in half and took 37.5 for another 2 weeks. then i went up to 50. mind you, at this point i was cycling, unbelievably irritable and just plain miserable. after another 3 weeks we went to 75. i got more red spots at this point so i decreased by 12.5 for a week, then went back to 75 and no rash so we went to 100. another three weeks 100. 2 weeks later 150 and another 2 weeks 200. after 100 it was really easy to increase, at least it was for me. i feel great now and i know the lamictal is working. it's been a lifesaver, but those first few months were REALLY hard.
kind regards
