thank yu guys so much. you are all so right on all accounts. What i really originally wanted to know was do Wellb and Lamac work well together! Since you said yes i am happy to proceed in asking my Dr.
Last time i went to him he said "what do you want ill give you whatever you want!" And talking about my needs and dislikes he suggested a few - cyplexa or something like that? he offered to up the wellb. i declined because i figured it wasnt working anymore because of how i had been feeling but without it in my system i can tell the difference and do appriciate what it was doing for me. I also feel better with the limactil so hopefully he will let me mix the two. I should have called today but ill have to wait until monday.
I hope what you are saying about not gaining any more weight on lamactil is accurate. It seems commen sense that if you have a symptom from a drug , the more mg's you take the more of the symptom you get. And I am only at 25 mg's for the past week but going up to 50mg's next week following with 100 the week after. SCARY. I most certainly am freaking out about these 5 pounds in 2 weeks. Ive read many say that the extra weight is worth not feeling depressed but this is not the case for an anorexic. Even a recovered anorexic. I have to be careful still with things such as this. Since recovered ive relapsed several times and let me tell you depressed or not doesnt matter an A will make sure they are as thin as they need to be regardless of the consiquence let alone a trade off and im feelin the itch, sooo. Hopefully no more weight.
