Hi All

I have been ramping up my Lamotrigine for the last couple of months from 25mg BD up to the now 100mg BD. Over the same period I have been having trouble with stomach and bowel cramps especially after I eat something. Over the last two months I have lost nearly 10% of my body weight due to not being able to eat properly.

I spoke with my Psych yesterday about the issue and he thinks it has to do with an old diagnosis I had 20 years ago of Irritable bowel Syndrome and has referred me to a Gastroenterologist. The waiting period to see a Gastro is months so I thought I would post the question up here and see if anyone else has any experiences the same.

Any thoughts appreciated
