[QUOTE="totoro, post: 298367, member: 3155"] I think for now we will go to psychiatrist apt. check her levels which likely are higher now due to the increase. See where they are and then increase if they are still low. See how that goes... If they are at a good level. Then I will have to think. One question Smallworld- shouldn't we be seeing some benefits from the Lithium? From what I have read even if she hasn't reached her correct blood levels yet we should still see good or bad reactions. If we are seeing some bad reactions on top of her instability already, why would we increase it? Also why would we increase the AP? would it do anything at this point after being on it for 3 years? She has been up to 10mg... she has been on Risperdal and Seroquel. Our psychiatrist is pro-active and willing to do anything for K. Her son has BiPolar (BP). She works at the University and is involved in Research. She just came back from a study in Russia. So she is not complacent regarding Mental Illness. She maybe just has different views, or is trying new research? The study on lower Blood Levels was out of Europe. I would have to search for it again. It was a small study. I agree with everyone. I also have others in my life that I have to work with and gently guide sometimes. husband. LOL I myself have never hallucinated, so I can't imagine. Right now she is fine. I am giving her a few minutes of reading to her sister. [/QUOTE]
