As the others have already said...do not mess with something that works and allows you to work and be a productive member of society. Too many here have long standing issues and are debilitated and cannot work or even experience a moderatively normal life. If any of your symptoms increase then you can always be evaluated at that time.
Or if you are truly a planner, get a good psychiatrist now while you are stable. It makes sense to do this while things are in good control and explain this to the psychiatrist. Ask for suggestions and tweak meds if you want but making any major change in a treatment plan that works relatively well would be a mistake. We all know that doing something like that can always put you into a downward spiral and if you haven't had the pleasure of that, be forewarned, we have all been there and are trying to protect you from that hellish experience.
