> I visited the doctor, for reasons linked below, and she said that joint pain is more common for Lexapro than Lamictal. She said that in Lamictal it's extremely rare.
Well, your doctor appears to be wrong. Arthralgia was found to be associated with Lamictal in more than one short-term study, 2% incidence in one case, and in the range of 1-5% in another. Lexapro, nor Celexa (the racemate) lists arthralgia as a symptom.
