Hi WC,

I'm sorry to hear your pdoc isn't being receptive.

When I was on 300mg once a day I HAD to take it at night because it made me so dizzy and foggy. I took it for a while in the mornings but I could hardly function. Moving it to the night made a huge difference for me. So for sure there's something to it making you dizzy and sleepy.

I'm not sure if I ever mentioned this WC but I suggest you get your liver function tested about once per year. I had to stop taking lamictal because it was damaging my liver and only found out about a year after the damage started when I was showing symptoms.
