Lorelion Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I currently take Lamictal and Seroquel (200mg each), and I'm noticing more and more that I'm experiencing a lot of the side effects from both of them. It sucks ?. The weird thing is that it's not a constant thing -- like I'll be fine, but then I have a couple of days where the side effects are really intense ... My hands pretty much won't work right, my concentration is so bad that people have to repeat things multiple times before I know what they're saying, blah, blah, blah. I'm just curious -- has anyone else experienced side effects in an intermittent pattern like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SashaSue Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Your hands not working right doesn't necessarily sound so much like a med side effect. You might want to check in with your gp to make sure there's not something else going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorelion Posted February 16, 2017 Author Share Posted February 16, 2017 I'm going to bring it up, but ataxia is one of the side effects and I just get really uncoordinated and start dropping everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a good reason to get in touch with your prescribing DR ASAP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAL9000 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 The cognative stuff is serious. I would call and ask if you should stop. I took some stuff that really goofed me up. Like how do you stop a car *While coasting into a small town! My Doc just about had a stroke himself but told me that this was a drug I was never to take.
