> Chiron I just did a google search for you on crazymeds and no mention of hormones but of course that's only one site. Love Phillipa
Thank you Phillipa, you are really such a good person. I am just balling and hanging on by hoping it is a temporary hormone thing. I was doing a little better for a couple of weeks, so I am in this dilemma of waiting it out or taking the chance of increasing my dosage. I just went to crazymeds (thanks for the reminder). This is what it says, although I can't find anything that explains how/what/why:
"Where other anticonvulsants can mess with your girly hormones, your girly hormones are more likely to mess with Lamictal (lamotrigine). This means that Lamictal's efficacy can vary throughout the month. Isn't that fun? So, no, it's not your imagination if it seemed to work better last week."
