At first, when I was correctly diagnosed. The pdoc I had put me on a ton of meds that turned me into a zombie. After 9 days I went off the meds and decided that she was scary. (I realize now that she was trying to keep me out of the hospital by having me come in every day and tweaking meds, but she didn't explain herself so I got scared). After that I went to another p-doc and told him what had happened. He went with the bp diagnosis and put me on just topamax. For some reason it made me crazy and I ended up in the hospital where they changed it to Trileptal. I went back into the hospital soon after because I was severely depressed and suicidal, so they added Prozac. It was amazing. It took me right out of my suicidal depression. After lots of tweaking and mor hospital stays, the cocktail I am on seems to work, with a little breakthrough that may last a day or two. I am on depakote, Seroquel, Prozac, and Trazodone as needed for sleep.
If I could lose the darn weight, I think I would be even better.
