Picked up my lithium refill today and the pharmacy changed the brand from "apo" to "pms". They didn't even say anything. I have a few days of the "apo" lithium left over so I'll mix that with the "pms" one so I'll eventually be switched over to it by the time the "apo" is done.

I have been reading online that there's not much difference between them as far as lithium goes so it might not be a big deal.

I'm missing my eldest son today - he left in January to work in another country but was back for a visit a 5 weeks ago for a couple of weeks. Doesn't help that I'm feeling low.

I was busy today running errands and getting a few things done, but I'm so tired. Could be the increased dose of Latuda.

The combination I'm on doesn't seem to be working to lift my depression. I'm waiting for an appointment with the MDPU (Mood Disorders Psychopharmacology Unit) of a well-known research and teaching hospital here, so no med changes until then. It could be a month or two wait.
