Hi SAS,

The others are right. Lithium is an extremely toxic medication, and doesn't play well with a lot of other meds. Now, that's not to say that it might not work for you after you've had a chance to get past the start-up side-effects. But your doctor should be testing your blood every two weeks to check your toxicity levels. There's a real fine line between enough and too much. If you're not comfortable with this med combo, don't hesitate to mention it to your doc, and if you don't get the response you want, get a second opinion right away. Lithium is not a med that you want to take chances with.

I hope everything works out OK for you.

I will sail my vessel,
Til the river runs dry,
Like a bird upon the wind,
These waters are my sky,
I'll never reach my destination,
If I never try,
So I will sail my vessel,
Til the river runs dry.
