| Well..I am still going onto the packet..so I took it as recommended and the 2 pills all at once. It is not a lg. dose as of yet, but I have such a migraine today. Maybe it's unrelated.. |

| The migraine, from reading earlier posts, could be an after effect of a seizure or an actual seizure itself. Maybe if you take some Advil, that might help. That one's OK for me and doesn't seem to conflict with the meds. Also, you might have a low blood sugar count or hunger. I need to eat something with this med (chocolate is my fix). Maybe something bland in your diet would help? |

| That was my thought also.maybe I had a smaller seizure and didn't really realize it. I do get bad headaches typically afterwards. Last night I was having what I thought was a nightmare and suddenly screamed HELP at the top of my lungs and scared my husband half to death. I never do that. Rather odd. I will try the advil..that'll usually help me too. Tylenol does nothing for me. Thanks again! Michelle |

| Wow, that's an incredible coincidence. One morning a few years ago, I also yelled in bed at the top of my lungs. It only happened once. I must have had a nightmare or something. |

| My doctor never reminds me to titrate. except when I first started. My med was raised 50 and then 100mg at a time. I forgot about titrating one of the 100mg increases. I got a horrible headache. If there was any other reaction, I wasn't very aware of it because of the headache. I have heard people call it the "Lamictal headache" You can also get it from going off it to quickly. I keep my older smaller pills so that I can use them for titrating. I would hate to have to break up a pill, but if I had to I would. That stuff isn't good to increase too quickly. |

| Three weeks ago the doctor added one more lamictal. I am up to six. It seems to me that it had slowed my responce when someone would ask me a question. Also felt drowsy. Dave |

tipas you move the glass to your lips, keep it under your tongue - no tastebuds! take it with juice - strong flavour, and dont do the back of throat thing cuz a) you might choke, and b) you can somehow even taste it at the back of your throat, which is a mystery to me why! hope it helps xx |
