I wrote my pdoc giving her an update about my progress thus far with my Lamictal increase last month. I mentioned that I have some anxiety here and there. I think it's manageable, but worth mentioning. I just got a response asking if I would like to increase my Effexor to 225. Seriously?! First of all, that dose threw me into hypomania last summer. Maybe having Lamictal in there may not make it so bad, but every time I bring concerns to her, she just wants to up doses! I'm already borderline feeling overmedicated as it is. It's so hard to find a good pdoc, especially down here.
I just want my headaches to go away and not feel like this anymore. I guess that's too much to ask.
Thanks for listening
