Bipolar Disorde
"The help I received from Lamictal was outstanding.  It took a few weeks but my down cycle wasn&#039;t nearly as bad and the mania all together stopped.  In time the cycles all stopped.  BUT the side effects were too much to handle.  I started to lose hair, my fingernails were so think I broke nails typing (even on many vitamins and prescription vitamin D). I would bruise just by a bracelet resting on my arm for a few minutes and then the bruise wouldn&#039;t go away, the worst side effect was terrible circulation.  I have been on Topamax and experienced the poor circulation they talk about all the time, but this was something else entirely. I couldn&#039;t feel my finger tips and my feet had NO feeling.  My hands were ice cold all the time."
