I've been on Lamictal 150mg for 2 years. recently I have been having tingling in my feet and arms/hands. I'm wondering if anyone else has had anything similar.
Frisbee09 - Me too!!! I am recently having almost constant low grade numbness/tingling in hands and feet on and off throughout the day. I am 28 years old, healthy. I am on 300mg of lamictal and have been for almost two years and never experienced this until now. My doctor and I am working on looking at it, but his instinct is that it may be a side effect...it didn't feel this way when I was taking 150mg the first six months I was on it. How long does your tingling last for?
Royston - Hi there....... i have been on Lamitrogine now for just over a month and almost instantly felt headaches and a "Pins and needles" feeling in my right foot.It seems worse at night time.Im hoping this passes as there seems to be a lot of side effects that are listed in the first 8 weeks of taking this medication-tapering up to a bigger dose.Currently i take 50mg morning and 50mg evening before bed.Also insomnia is a slight problem BUT this could be my mind readjusting as i have been self medicating for years with Weed,alcohol and Diazepam.This is quite often the case though with Bipolar disorders :o( But on the brighter side i now have a clarity and contented happinness that i never thought i could acheive! ;o)
Hope this helps!!? Moiston@hotmail.com
