Well, it didn't go well with not taking the Tranquinol, I got up at 3:00 (the night before last) to take one so that I could finally go to sleep. I took 12.5mg Lamictal last night, shortly thereafter noticed really bad low back pain, know that it is tied to Lamictal, slept really badly because of the back pain and because of other unusual stimulating effects - I suspect Lamictal for this as well. I had the back pain all through the day today, still here tonight, but thankfully a bit less intense than last night. I'm not taking Lamictal anymore.
Changed my mind and decided to keep trying Lamictal, but cut back to 6.25mg. I do feel as if there is benefit from it in terms of depression, so it may be worth it to try to get beyond the back pain and sleep issues...
