I'll be ok. I'm just ignoring the thoughts, although they can be a bit annoying.
The sleepiness was despite Provigil (which I take as needed, and boy, was it needed). Without that, I wonder if I would have been up at all yesterday?
It's partly my fault. I was supposed to start at 25 mg every other day, but when I wrote down the first day I took it, on Thursday, I was positive I had taken it the day before. I am a positive idiot about time. I had actually taken it for the first time Thursday, then again on Friday. So I'll go back to every other day for the first two weeks.
But it did surprise me. I hadn't read that Lamictal was known for sleepiness and wasn't expecting it. So I wasn't altogether sure whether or not to blame the Lamictal for keeling over off and on for two days and counting. I feel like testing it by going off it until I feel normal again, then starting it and see if the sleepiness comes back.
But I really like my migraine doctor and have this uncharacteristic desire to be compliant, so I suppose I'll take it again today like I'm supposed to. :(
