Hey concerned dad. I am a 29 year old who has been having partial seizures since I was probably 13 and I've been having the grand mal seizures for almost 2 years now. As I have come to find out,...
Lamictal has been marvelous for me. I only began medicating about 2 or 3 months ago. I started out with the 25 mg (which was actually prescribed by my Psychiatrist for bi-polar disorder) and am now...

goodwitch - I like the party idea! /community/emoticons/cool.gif That made me laugh out loud. So far so good with the increase. I'm only up to 200 mg/day. The little lady that did the slapping on...
Emeria - I understand your feeling. I too get bouts of serious anxiety. Lately, it's been a fear of socialization. I haven't been calling friends. People invite my fiancee and I to do things and I...
Slowly but surely the dosage on the Lamictal is rising. Today I begin 100mg in the AM and 100 mg at bedtime. It's funny that I make the change, affecting me in some unknown fashion on the same day...
