thanks for the replies ... it wasn't that I was googling for information but that I happened to catch a thread about my meds and experience ... and hadn't heard that the two were connected before. Maybe just another person in middle age taking the same drugs with a propensity for deja vu and forgetting things :)
I haven't had any other side effects from being *on* the Lamictal (save a rash that I take daily Claritin for) ... the only problems I had were when I tried to go *off* of it (shaky legs, weakness, extreme fatigue, seizure ... had to wait to drive again ... won't be going off anymore). Now that I think about it, folks with epilepsy are more prone to bad memory, as well ... so that's probably my thing. Overthinking, I guess.
