I'll speak with her about some other mood stabilizer and see if she agrees if this keeps up.
I'm doing ok today. Still mixed but I'm managing. The cold is taking it's time in going away. I'm still coughing etc but no fever finally.
Also, I'm doing things around the house now, which I haven't done in a very long time.
I'm hoping this is just my brain getting used to Mirapex and that this will pass.

Oh dear, the liver issue with Lamictal is downright scary!
thanks for sharing this. I know I'll be getting my liver function checked because you've shared.
It's kind of nice to be doing things around the house, isn't it?
I'd had a discussion with my pdoc just 2 days ago. She feels I have a touch of hypomania. We went through the criteria for hypomania and I could not see where she was coming from and told her so.
I'd asked her if there is a problem with possibly being a bit hypo in order to be functional? She'd said she could li ve with it if I could sleep better. She then dropped by morning dose by 0.5mg. : I'd protested. It happened anyway.
I have to laugh.
I so do not want an ugly depressions to start!
I hope your cold disappears asap!
Thanks so much, Scooter!
Much Love to you and to your own. : )
