>Thanks for the advice. Sadly, lithium was quite toxic to me. If I discontinue the Tegretol, I'll look into the Zyprexa. I've done a little research on the drug, the side effect profile looks prett scary, especially considering all of my other failed drug trials. I haven't tried an antipsychotic yet so it could maybe be different.
If the Tegretol fails, my pdoc wants to try Depakote next. That may also be good for my headaches. If Depakote doesn't work, maybe Lamictal.
