> Hi there guys. I'm glad I found this. I've titrated up slowly to 300 of the lamictal. For about 3 or 4 weeks now, I am breaking out in this rash. It's prickly and hot, on my hands, forearms, (the most), and back of arms. I've also felt my eye start iching today and I can feel it and see it prickling on my hands now. Sometimes it's on my neck, too. I've also had the jaw and muscle tension!!! I am so creeped out! What does this mean and why do the side effects say "a fatal rash"?? Someone tell me..
Its called Stevens Johnson syndrome. Its a severe bodywide allergic reaction of the skin and mucous memebranes. You need to be in the emergency room, yesterday!
