I must first more fully explore Trileptal by pushing the dosage. I moved up my appointment to see my doctor to later this week. I really would like to jump up from 900mg to 1200mg. I am so tempted to self-medicate, but I think it is important to exercise a little discipline at this point. I can't sit too long on the mifepristone thing, though. I believe there is a limit as to how long the IND remains in effect.

Is there any pressing reason why you couldn't do the mifepristone trial anyway? I mean, wouldn't it be great it if worked so well you could lower or stop some of the other meds? Or if it just worked anyway, Trileptal and all? Or do you have to be off meds before the trial?Marsha
