Hi Everyone,
Just curious if anyone else has had or heard about stomach/intestinal issues with combinations of their meds. Between Feb to early-April, lamictal was slowly added to the zonegran I take. But since mid-June I have baffled ER docs, primary care drs, GI specialists, and surgeons I have seen for constant pain/pressure on my right side, nauseousness and stomach cramps. The side pain sometimes continues back to my right kidney. Ironically enough, all my auras start in my stomach too. All tests (CT scans and lots of others, showed no stones and all ok with major stuff like kidneys, apppendix, gall bladder, etc) but showed inflammation in intestines. So I changed diet and cut out all red meat and lactose products for the first 3 weeks and no change in pain level. All specialists baffled as to what's causing this inflammation and pain for nearly 6 weeks now. I'm wondering if could be fairly new combo of zonegran and lamicatal in my system. Anyone have any thoughts/suggestions that I could discuss with drs to try and get to the bottom of this? Thank you - Anne
