I wonder if maybe your exhaustion played into your pdoc's impression of a downswing(??) How do you feel about her assessment?

Much
Thanks for helping me to think this through.

I'd really had no good reason to feel so terribly exhausted. It appears both my mood and energy are headed south. Lamictal, at higher dosages, makes me very, very sleepy. I feel terribly frustrated with meds I find sedating, as I cannot accomplish much when they are making me light-headed and too sedated to care/function well. We had decreased it for just a week before increasing it again. Pdoc feels it's not stabilizing me enough at a lower dose.

I have not yet decided if I will adopt the increase. I have meds which enable me to do it either way -- higher dose or same dose.

just thinking out loud.

I will give it some further consideration.

Thanks again, Innerzone!
