I started taking Trileptal on WED, next day noticed tingling in face, some slight numbness in my gums. Then on THU noticed my throat felt tight.
I did call the pdoc who said to go to see the regular doc.
My fam prac doc said it looked fine in my throat and it could be strep, so we stopped the Trileptal...:( so we can rule out the other stuff.
We will restart after the antibiotics.
Has anyone experienced any side effects like this?
And, can you really tell right away? Cause on THU morning, I did like 7 loads of laundry and worked on projects without being distracted!
SO far I am on
Wellbutrin 75mg 2x a day
Clonopin .75 mg at bedtime
The mood swings were just getting crazy out of control and we tried almost everything else: Lamactil (rash); depakoke (manic-icky); topomax (extreme fatigue, stupidity); risperdone (eps); olanzipine (eps)...so the Trileptal feels like one of the last resorts. Any support is appreciated!
