<font color="purple"> been taking tegretol (carbamazepine) for a couple of weeks now, at a dose of 600 mg a day total.... 1st week was interesting: the drunken stage it should be called, LOL... with extreme tiredness.and upset belly.....the 2nd week started out with an attitude, lots of inpatience, still had confusion issues, and word jumbles, with drooling, and lots of eating...... As I start my 3rd week I have a rash all over my legs and arms, and feel like my moods may be beginning to stablilize, still lots of eating which I cant should gain as I already weigh twice as much as I should!!.... I see doc next week ...... still a little unsure about this treatment for me but will talk with doc about concerns.....</font>

Rash is not good. If it gets worse or goes to your neck and face area go to the ER.

<font color="purple"> which is exactly what happened.... I actually had two things going on , one aggravting the other... I had some kind infection, not sure what exactly, but cold symptoms, and an allergic reaction to the tegretol , which aggrevated the breathing part of the infection.... So i was immediatley taken off the tegretol, giving anitbiotics, and a blood test to confirm the reaction.... so next appt tuesday will start from scratch and see what other treatment doc will suggest..... </font>
