Does Trileptal actually drop your body's sodium level? What are the side effects or what would like feel like? Does it mess up your ph balance?
My doctor is stumped and has run all kinds of bloodwork. My regular doc doesn't know anything about Trileptal!
I hate salt or salty foods, so I'm wondering if the swelling is caused actually from a lack of sodium or a drop of sodium or if my body's ph is off due to Trileptal use. Even though I hate salt I drink tons of water, so it wouldn't be unusual for my body to be low in sodium.
My husband thinks my ph is off and I might have gout. He thinks I need to use a little baking soda to get my ph bad to alkaline.
Any help on this subject would be great. I love Trileptal.
