[QUOTE="neednewtechnique, post: 77132, member: 3527"] He really wasn't trying to put me off, i think he genuinely had NO IDEA what I was talking about. But then at the same time, I found information online today that this is not the first time that has happened. Apparently it is pretty common for the ER docs to blow that off because they are not aware of the connection between that and SJS. I am just worried that we will end up having to hospitalize her to keep her safe or to get her on some different medications until the psychiatrist returns. She has a 24-hour crisis team, which has a Clinician on staff, but there is NO ON CALL psychiatrist for her, so no one to prescribe her another medication to replace the Lamictal with, so if I stop giving it to her she will be UNMEDICATED for this whole week, and I guess that this doesn't even really build up in your system to even be able to carry you through a few days without it, it only lasts 26 hours in your system. And without medications, she can be dangerous, to herself and to others, so I have concerns about just stopping it until she can be seen NEXT week!!! [/QUOTE]
