Ok, so ill be very brief.
I'm bi polar, and was taking lamictal,
It was working great, but the type of insurence I had at the time, i was no longer able to afford it so I switched around on other meds and ended up on seroquel, I could have slept my life away!
I became pregnant last October, and had a hard pregnancy due to hormones and of course the bi polar, talk about mood swings!!
My daughter is now a month old and I am not yet back on lamictal, but I go to my psych in a few days.
I need this med! I'm so manic its crazy I can cope when it comes to my daughter but I get so sad with feelings like I'm not good enough for her.
I got the pill, but reading the information, I did not know that lamotrigine (lamictal) interferes with BC and vice versa.
Someone out there are you or have u been in a similar position with this,med?
I need birth control but I need both that and my meds to be fully effective.
