Hi! I started a new med last week, carbamazeppine, and I was taking 200 mg once daily. I started a week ago and was doing well until I started getting dizzy Thursday. Not really dizzy so much as that weird feeling you get when you stop taking a med abruptly. So, I stopped taking it as of last night and the sensation is going away. So, now I get to try a new med and the clock is ticking. My boss said that my leave is approved through March 18th and after that, he doesn't know what will happen. That doesn't really help me with the stress thing. I was wondering about lamictal. I can't take lithium because of my thyroid but I was thinking that perhaps lamictal may be a good direction to go. Any thoughts?
