Holy Hell!!!
The Topomax has completely changed my life in the month it's been in my body! I've gone from trying to not be a couch potato and lose some weight to having the "Eye of the Tiger", now training myself to become a Spinning instructor. I've got a drive that I've never had before. (Damn, who knew stability could feel this good?!)
The Wellbutrin my doc says is a must so I just take it. I guess it keeps me from being depressed which I'm so proned to being.
The Seroquel keeps little old ladies in line in front of me at the grocery store from gettng kicked in the knee caps! (I am kidding!) But when I'm highly aggitated, it keeps me from losing my cool and having a cussing fit like a 5 yr old. It also keeps me from losing it in front of my ex-husband when he purposely pushes my buttons looking for a response. Love the Seroquel! Oh, and did I mention the sleep!?
Xanax when i am manic.
Not working well. I see pdoc next week and will discuss this with him.
eskalith, lamictal, geodon, ativan prn and synthroid is working well for me right now, fingers crossed.
My meds, besides my husband's protien shots are as follows: baby aspirin, prevacid, beta-blocker, and prn valium and lortab. I used to take trileptal, and if my doctor suggests another mood stabilizer I will agree to try it again.
