Has anyone on Lamictal (or generic) also dealt with eczema? I just started titrating and am on my 3rd day on 25mg of lamotrigine and 2mg of Abilify and I've noticed a flare of in my eczema, especially around my neck. I'm hoping that once I reach my therapeutic dose that my body will be used to it and it will go away. Any thoughts?

A lot of itching, it has not gone away. And anemia. And a pretty bad tremor, at it's worst I can't hold a coffee cup or put a key in a lock. And nausea.
Not to scare you, but you should be aware it happens. |

Thanks for the feedback Johnny. I am itchy most of the time without meds due to my eczema, lol, but I have noticed a slight increase, mostly in red splotchiness. My pdoc did mention facial twitching, which I have not experienced. I have had the nausea, which really sucks. I hope it doesn't get worse as I increase my dosage.
I'm also experiencing some pretty nasty headaches, bordering on migraines. I don't know if that's a side effect from the meds or if it's from the head cold I contracted the day I started my meds.
