[QUOTE="klmno, post: 293023, member: 3699"] You ladies make me feel so good! I just came back from visitation and difficult child says he is completely off tegretol now. We all expected that one to go well because it was only supposed to have been PRN anyway but they had been giving it daily. difficult child says he feels more alert and it's easier for him to get up in the mornings and do things right away instead of being groggy all day long. Even if he can't come off everything, I'll be happy to know they get the medications to the minimum he really requires. He has lost a little weight and looks like he's in great shape physically. I attribute that to swimming and he says he's considering re-joining a swim team when he gets out. He tried it one season a few years ago and even though he did very well, he never wanted to do it again. I would love to see him get back into it since he couldn't care less about any other sport or group stuff. He used to, but he gave them up one by one. I know some of the MS's contribute to weight issues, cognitive dulling/memory issues, and acne, all of which difficult child has problems with. Does anyone know of lithium/lithobid has any of these as a side effect? Depakote definitely did but he's been off that since last Fall. [/QUOTE]
