[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 201158, member: 3444"] and I have to say it was one of the nicest times I've had there with husband. He didn't get carried away with the gambling (in years past, he'd secretly pull out credit card cash advances after he'd blown all his cash so he could gamble some more). And although we didn't win big, we didn't lose big either (which is NOT something he could say last year). Impulse control: check! We didn't even argue! We had a great time at the Santana concert (three solid hours of amazing music). We enjoyed eachother's company and came home feeling better about eachother than we have in a long time. This time last year, things were pretty iffy between us. I AM glad he opted to wait on his medication changes until after this weekend. And so speaking of medication changes, I suppose he'll begin his Paxil wean this week. The psychiatrist wants him off that completely before he starts Trileptal (and the neuro said to stay on the Lamictal until Trileptal is at the target dose). His reasoning is that the Lamictal is supposedly serving the same antidepressant function as the Paxil, and it will be easier to know what's causing what symptoms the fewer medications he is on. So, fingers crossed that as we enter our 20th married year together, he's able to get both his seizures AND his mood problems under control. If he can, I think we just might live to see the next 20 years together ;) [/QUOTE]
