I am not sure. I was having terrible side effects that put me in a fog and made me sick, but my p-doc went down on my dose of that med (depakote) and I feel like I am a little clearer. I am having a hard time keeping track of things. I thought I sent my husband a text that I later was referrinf to in our phone conversation, but since I didn't send the text, he had no idea what I was talking about. That derailed me and then I kind of blanked out for a moment and just made some sounds until I thought of something to say.
