So, I've been on Lithium for about 1.5 weeks now. Started at 300mg at night and upped 300mg every three days and so now I'm on 900mg. Here is my problem! I put on 6lbs in one day! Obviously it's water because my hands, fingers, feet are all swollen! What does that mean? Anyone else have this happen? How do I get this off? Btw, I'm drinking lots of water and staying hydrated.

HASHI BIPOLAR MOM

.125mg Synthroid
400mg Lamictal
75mg Cymbalta
2mg Clonidine
900mg Lithium
