Thank you so much for this! I'm learning so much about Lithium, and I actually feel comforted knowing that others take it! I am really, really glad that you don't have to get bloodwork like every 2 weeks or something, and that you and bizi both made it sound to me like you get the bloodwork most often in the beginning to get the level stabalized. I feel glad that I know more now so that I can see my Pdoc on Monday more informed!
