So right now I am on Lamictal, Trileptal, Lithium, Risperdal, and Klonopin. I am constantly tired. Recently I have started having trouble with my eyes refocusing when I move them, seeing things out of my peripheral vision that isn't there, coordination issues, and trouble walking straight like bumping into walls.
So are these side effects from all my meds or could it just be from fatigue? ETA: Headaches too |

I would check your lithium level, it could be toxicity. That's a lot of meds to be on so it definitely could be side effects.

Sounds like side-effects to me too. Could be serious so I would suggest you contact your pdoc in the morning and if you can't get in contact with them then go to a GP, or even hospital if it gets worse. Lithium toxicity is dangerous but it could also be due to one of the others. Best to be safe.

I'd definately say side effects...the first night of Klonopin had me feeling the walls when walking. Ativan does nothing but Klonopin is another story. I have the eye focus problems too. Gets worse at night and might possibly be part age for me. I need to see an eye doc again.
