I'm very confused right now. I've been taking lamictal (my first med for seizures) for four months and have had side effects for two months, when the dose was raised to the present level. The good thing is that it's controlling my seizures, but the side effects are really getting to me. I think about changing meds but I worry that 1) it will make me more susceptible to seizures during the switch, and 2) that the side effects will be worse, especially when I'm on two meds instead of the one. I know no one can tell me if the new med will have fewer side effects, but if anyone has insight into anything about switching meds, I'd really appreciate hearing it. Thanks!
