Hey FB,
A low dose of Zoloft would be 12.5 or 25 mg, and Lexapro would be 2.5 mg.
Brown rice is ok, but I think white might actually be better because it has no phytates, brown rice has lots. Phytates are believed to prevent essential nutrients from being absorbed. Quinoa is fine as a grain substitute.
Mark's Daily Apple and Weston A. Price are great sites to go to for information on a more primal diet-especially MDA. Mark of MDA wrote a goobook called The Primal Blueprint-I plan on reading it at some point.
Ya know, lithium has been used along with Lamictal with great success. So, if you still need more improvement after going up to 200 mg of LamictaL, you might want to consider going for a low dose of lithium instead of raising the Lamictal dose. I doubt a low dose of lithium would cause much mind numbing, if any at all.
I would be curious to see how you did on just 100 mg Lamictal for a month. I think it's interesting that your doctor isn't going to try this first. It may be worth asking him/her to do this before making the jump to 150 and 200.
