Marty,
I'm going to hang in there for a little while, but if things don't get better I'm going to ask the doctor to take me down to 200 mg.
It seems like these cognitive problems aren't all that rare with Lamictal, yet it's not listed in the "most common side effects" or in the "possible side effects" or even in the "freaky rare side effects," as crazymeds.org puts it.
