Have you tried magnesium? It massively decreased the number I was having when I started it (started at 400 mg, now take 1000 mg daily).
It's strange, because I've been on Lamictal for many years, so I would think my body would be completely used to it. I am considering making an appointment with a neurologist. I never tried magnesium; just a multivitamin and vitamin D. That's interesting that it helped. Maybe I'll try it. Thanks!
