About 2 weeks ago I upped my dose of lamictin from 125mg to 150mg. I now have a red splotch on my arm and have flu-like symptoms. I don't know if its me just being paranoid or what but I'm scared it could be the lamictal rash.I pray that its not because lamictal is the only medication that has worked for me so far into my treatment (I've been taking it for about a year, but at a very low dose, 75mg) Am I being paranoid? My parents just had the flu, and it could just be a bug bite. I really don't want to give up this medication, it has saved my life, I just want to cry. As soon as things start working out, I hit another dead end
