Update: Saw my pdoc a few hours ago. He agreed I come off Lamotrogine at 100 mg a week (going down slow through the week). I’m thrilled. Hopefully my vision will return to normal. He asked that I update him via email each week to make sure I’m ok. Is that a fast taper?

He is also following my gastrointestinal specialist to keep up with my stomach issues. He said it may be PTSD related but most likely physical. He also saw the photos from my endoscopy and agreed my stomach is in perfect condition. It’s great he wants to cover all bases. A great pdoc around, and a good human being. I am very lucky to have him.

The rain is clearing after five days. Nice to see the sun again. It’s still cold during the day. Well for me it is. 12’C. When I was in England for four months from winter to early spring 12’C was t-shirt weather after a near freezing, long, dark winter. Here everyone is fully dressed with scarves. Guess it’s all relative.
