I just got back from my appointment. I see her every 90 days right now.
I talked to her about cognitive problems with Lamictal. She said that she had a lot of people in Lamictal and I was the only one to mention it. Before she this she said that the bipolar was likely distracting me.
I told her about trying to qualify for long term care insurance. My interview with a nurse from the insurance company was especially interested in my cognitive skills. She gave me tests over the phone and I think I did well except for one.
She said no one called to ask about me and she wouldn't really have known is they were just requesting files.
She also said that my kidney disease might be effecting my thinking since my kidneys can't process waste as well as healthy kidneys. She said that it could be that the toxic waists that are effecting my thinking processes.
I thought this was interesting.
So she was satisfied with how I was handling life events and seemed to be stable. No adjustments in meds.
