Meds:
200mg Lamictal
1200mg Gabapentin
25mg Seroquel for sleep
1mg/twice a day Klonopin
The least amount of medication I've been on in many, many years and I feel much better. In addition, when I stopped the SSRI my blood pressure decreased way down into a very good range. What a difference!
I am meeting my new GP soon and requesting a referral to a doctor at the clinic who specializes in helping people to get off of certain medications (such as Klonopin and, possibly for me, Gabapentin.) He also works with chronic pain issues. My goal is to eventually (as far as psych meds) take only Lamictal. (Perhaps I can even decrease the amount of Lamictal soon.) Coming off Klonopin may take a year - or even two. But the time for me to be free of it is long overdue.
As for Seroquel, I find that there are OTC sleep meds that work as well as the low-dose Seroqeul does - at least, nearly as well. I would like to use those OTC's with Seroquel as an occasional back-up if I have a night that requires a solid, long sleep ( an event the next day).
