Hi Neal.
Thanks for the flattering complements. If I genuinely help even one person, that is plenty of reward for me. It is good that you said something, though. I often think my words travel the Internet without much import.
I started a thread below raising the possibility that being switched to a generic version of Lamictal last month might be the culprit in my not feeling so well. I have decided to take the original brand name version for a week to see what happens. I have some 150mg tablets that I can split. I had been doing well at 200mg per day. Now, I have to reevaluate my negative experience while I was taking memantine (Namenda). Was it the generic lamotrigine or the memantine that made me feel worse? It is quite possible that it was both. I am going to add back the memantine at some point to find out. If that proves unsuccessful, then I can move on to adding Topamax (topiramate). After that, I don' know what to do. Maybe I'll actually let my doctor do all the talking next time. :-)
