Saw my pdoc yesterday. She's switching me to lithium (from Abilify). Started on the lithium yesterday with no problems, but almost as soon as I took it tonight, I've been nauseous and in and out of the bathroom 5 or 6 times with diarrhea. It's not even a high dose (barely 300mg. We're working up to 1200 by the end of the month), but I'm very med-sensitive. I hope side effects don't get too much worse as the dose increases. That would suck.
