Used to post under Ruby but changed email, lost password, etc etc...so I'm Ruby2 now....
Been through a journey and more with meds and hospitalization for bipolar2. am unstable rt now on lamictal, abilify, nuvigil, trazodone, prazosin, synthroid and the latest addition of carbitral. lamictal did well for me for a couple of years until i developed severe esophagitis and had to come off of it. we tried to re-introduce at low dosage but its a no go. coming off of lamictal ended me up in the hospital, so thankfully carbatral lowers it in your system and we can take it down very very slowly.
other than the usual depression/anxiety i'm feeling a lot of body achiness...even before carbatral. wondering if anyone else has experience with that. not feeling anything particularly good or bad with the carbatral but i'm only on 100mg...taking it slow b/c i have strong reactions to meds.
tired and achy...that is how i feel. tiredness i'm familiar with, the achiness all over not so much. no fever. not sick. just feeling yucky. any thoughts folks? this has been going on for a couple, three weeks now. really hating it. making life really difficult for me.
thanks in advance,
ruby
