Went on drug three years ago for bi-polor and got off to try to get pregnet in nov. noticed change so started taking it again. Now my friends are saying I am out of it I don't comprehend or understand things I read like leson plans for teachers (I am a substatute)whats up. Is anybody else expreanced this, or taken lamictal while they were pregnet?
This drug seems to make me pretty stupid too. I am also on it for bi-polar disorder, but have only been on it for about 2 months. I didn't start noticing the thinking problem until my second week of the 100 mg. I can deal with it I guess. Sometimes I just have to concentrate a little harder.
Oh yes,, you are not crazy... it made me forget and act ditzy. The dr's will tell you no, but it does make you forget , etc. Either try & strengthen memory skills, take notes, etc. I did this plus I lessened the mg a little. Its a tradeoff for a great medication. Does wonders.... Take a little less with the advice of a dr
