Because it seems that I often get worse as I increase my dosage, my dr is suggesting I try staying at low doses (1/2 of lowest available):
12.5 mg Lamictal
10 mg Celexa
1/2 .0.25 mg Synthroidand then a regular 2mg Xanax XR
I have been on this combo for 4 weeks and started to feel an improvement until extreme PMS?, I know the Xanax helps, but I'm not sure if or what else. I am a mystery to my dr. because he has never seen someone react so paradoxically to so many medications. So maybe I'm too med sensitive to go up. ECT is what really helps, but my new anxiety has made me too nervous for it.
I do have some cycling, even within a day, so I'm tempted to up the Lamictal. But this is my 3rd Lamictal trial and it seems like before it made me more agitated (and increased acne). But maybe going up more slowly would be better?
Thoughts? Experiences? Thanks.
