I have been thinking about my last post. Another idea I have is that you might increase your dose of Lamictal. I go by the theory that we have a level of depression which if graphed would travel a typical zig zag line, up and down across the graph. Then we have a level of medication more like a straight bar horzontally across the graph at a given hieght. If the disease goes up and down, as it will, below the level of the medication all is pretty good. But It can spike up through the medication level, like islands poping up in the sea and at those places the disease overwhelms the med and we are depressed or in pain. That's my concept. So maybe you need to raise the medication bar a bit higher. I am under the impression that 150mg of Lamictal is not a very big dose. Is my theory loopy?
