Here are some of the adamant claims my OBGYN made during my appointment today:

- Lamtical is an antidepressant, and is surely the cause of my weight gain (not my bc). He has never known an antidepressant that has not caused weight gain.

- My Lamictal is not affected by hormonal birth control. If anything, the birth control is less effective because of the Lamictal.

- It is impossible that I felt better when on your placebo pills, because it doesn't work that fast. It must have been something else.

-Lo-loestrin fe has so little hormones in it, it couldn't possibly be having an effect on my meds or my mood.


.... Does any of this have any bearing? Or should I start looking for a new obgyn? Because right now my pdoc and obgyn are telling me totally opposite things and I have no idea what to do.
