My pdoc had prescribed both gabapentin and Lamictal. This is a re-trial of both meds. I was already on some gabapentin and we've been adjusting the dose. I've been having such a time with the gabapentin, I have not started the Lamictal. I've been concerned I could not tell which med is causing which side-effects if starting them both at the same time.

My point: pdoc prescribed both gabapentin and a mood stabilizer.

These episodes are difficult to deal with. I've been feeling overwhelmed and hopeless. (I am safe.)

My H is very patient and very supportive. He also wants to know "what's going on?" It can be a challenge to put it into words and a challenge to understand.

I deeply appreciate the ongoing support.
