She said alot of patients have had success with it. And it's worked out good overall for patients.
Anybody have any experiences with it?

I love my Lamictal! I hope you do not get the rash from it, because then you will not be able to use it. At first it made me very tired and forgetful... but after about 2 weeks that wore off. The higher doses (250mg+) gave me terribly vivid nightmares so I keep my dose at 200mg in addition to the lithium. Give it some time to work and I hope you have as much success with the drug as I did!!
