Thank you, that sounds like another good reason to discuss quitting the lithium. To be honest I'm not really sure about the benefit of lithium in addition to Lamictal in the first place. Maybe it was just meant as a fallback until I got to the right Lamictal dosage. I did have kidney and liver check-ups along with my bloodtests for lithium levels. I will ask for another check-up after I quit lithium (assuming I will).
