Not good, I might have to stop it which means I might have to withdraw from the psilocybin trial (they require participants to be on Lamictal).
Still feeling pretty low, but that's pretty standard for me.
My pdoc mentioned that stopping my meds is an option and I think I'm going to try it. She'll supervise me so I didn't think things could go terribly wrong.

Hey @
Scooter9, sorry to hear the Lactimal isn't working out for you as its a great medication with few effects that are unwanted.
I'd suggest taking your time coming off if the liver can tolerate it, really slow titrate. I've tried for several years to get off it without success, each time returning to the previous dosage.

Moose72 and @
Scooter 9 - My LFT on Lactimal returned high levels on and off for probably the first 12 months, each time we were able to get it back to high but acceptable through dropping the dose a little and diet changes. After that they stayed reasonably stable and we upped the dosage. I'm currently on 450mg
@
Nammu - I can so relate to the staring at the wall! It sounds like a series of novels that is well worth looking into, what are they about, how did you get into them?
Just popped in to say hi, back later. What a sensational group of achievers you are, celebrate the small things cause they aint small!
