Scott, it was my doc's thinking that since I was experiencing swelling with Trileptal, we would try upping the Geodon, but I miss Trileptal.
It's weird because I don't eat salt. But I do have swelling from Raynaud's Disease in my feet.
I always got great AD results from lower dose Geodon. I'm seeing her soon and going to discuss adding back a lower dose of Trileptal (since I miss it so bad - it keeps me from getting too depressed) and lowering the Geodon so I can get more AD effect.
Maybe if I go slowly up on Trileptal, instead of 0-1200mg, I won't aggravate the swelling.
Also, I didn't know that I should supplement with folic acid and other supplements while on Trileptal? Maybe I should try that.
I just love Trileptal. The irritability is terrible without it and I can't take ADs.
It's all very frustrating.
