[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 356057, member: 2211"] [SIZE=3][COLOR=indigo]Lamictal. My difficult child was on it for about 10 days. By the 5th day she couldn't walk straight - she would literally fall over, her gait was completely off. She was shaking and sweating and hyperventilating. She ended up in the ER and still, no one pointed at the Lamictal. At the time she had a wicked sinus infection and we thought maybe vertigo, but our allergist is the one who caught that it was the lamictal on the 8th day. He grabbed his PDR book and found it. She was on a starting dose (can't remember the amount) and we stopped it right then. Since your son's dose it so high, I doubt he can stop taking it without weaning. However, I'd get him to an ER.
