It's always something with me. I am just about to go up to 200mg of Lamictal. I really do feel better on this than I have on any of the SSRI's etc that I've tried. I have noticed some weird purple circles on my legs and now a giant bruise down my arm that I don't know where I got it. Reading up on Lamictal I see these are rare side effects. Does anyone know if it is a you can't take it anymore side effect or if it's a we'll just monitor it side effect? Man I hate to start over on something else.

I know the feeling as lamictal has another infrequent side effect excess salivation which I have. Love Phillipa

I haven't heard of this but would check it out because of the rash issue. I wouldn't want to start that slow ramp up again, that wasn't fun.

Believe it or not I mentioned this post in particular to my pdoc today as I am also on lamictal. She said a lot of people have strange reactions. In my case its excessive salivation. Love Phillipa
