It is acne, which I have even though i'm a 30-something. But it gets like 3-5 times worse. When I did web searching at the time I didn't find much. And then later I found that it has happened with other people.
But it is weird that Lamictal affects the skin. The rash, acne, and your sores. Hmmm...
When I first tried Lamictal I gave up because of the acne. For me, I'm glad I gave it another shot. I don't know that it helps my mood, but I'm pretty sure that it doesn't make my other meds swing me around.
During my last increase I went up extremely slow and didn't seem to have the usual probs.
