[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 106567, member: 2423"] I have not seen this side effect with Lamictal. However, I know that anticonvulsants/mood stabilizers can have serious side effects that should be checked immediately. In this situation, I think I would err on the side of caution and go to the ER. At least a blood test could be run tonight to see if there is any liver problem (which I think is what can cause the easy bruising). Why can't you call the psychiatrist? Doesn't he/she have an after-hours number for emergencies? Our three psychiatrists do, and in this situation, I wouldn't hesitate to call them to get their opinion. Please let us know what happens.
