Hi Karen,
You know, we're actually pretty great here at Psycho-Bab, so maybe you'd like to hang out a little longer? I rarely ever go to the other sites unles I'm forced to via redirect. But it's difficult to mix in our insights along with the goal of pure med talk because of the redirects even tho' the insights are a valuable part of what we're learning from the meds. Oh well, we do it anyway.I know we'd like to keep you in our circle cause you're really a hoot and a great resource. But I can understand wanting to take it to a more personal level. So, what is your email address again? I'd search back for it, but I think we'd all appreciate getting it again. Or is it just me that's a basket case (here we go again with the baskets) with finding things?
About your kitty. I don't have experience with a diabetic kitty but it sounds like the little critter needs love and care and has landed in your lap for a very good reason. You've probably bonded with each other by now, or soon will, so it will be a labor of love and a very tender and sweet opportunity to sustain the life of a little creature, no matter how long that may be. Your other cats may get jealous and protest for a few weeks, but they learn to accept and protect. A kind of maternal instinct emerges in both female and male kitties and everyone softens. Those kinds of things open and heal our hurting hearts a little bit more.
About shots, if that's what you're expected to do - I have to give myself shots of human growth hormone every day for my fibro condition and it's no problem whatsoever and I'm grateful for it. I've given my animals shots in the past and have volunteered at feral cat clinics and given plenty of shots. It's pretty easy, you have the shot ready, capture the critter (the hardest part), lift up the scruff while you're nuzzling and whoozhy whoozhy-ing and then pop the needle in, squirt, and you're done. They usually don't even notice it. I guess you could call it a different sort of 'quality time'.
There's some research being done on the properties of cinnamon which is showing alot of promise in diabetes. Do a Google search. Also check out Dr. Jonathan Wright's website. I don't know the URL at the moment, but if you search on 'Jonathan Wright'+cinnamon you might find something worthwhile. He's pretty alternative but on the cutting edge in a lot of things. Don't know how it would go with cats but you never know. You can always go real slow and maybe win the Animal Nobel Prize for Alternative Medicine. Good luck with the little sweetheart. We fed one of our little guys with a syringe of mashed up food for two months when he was sick and it's turned into a very special bonding.
BTW, I too have enjoyed the spirit of Vicodin and other opiods. There's some stuff on this site about using low doses of Naltrexone which is usually an antidote to morphine but in very small doses prevents tolerance and addiction and lets one have the benefits instead. So how about that email and the occasional visit to your Buds here? - Barbara

Asian princess! Love it! Wait til you get up to 6-7 G. Your hair and skin will start to shine more and it doesn't aggravate oily skin or acne at all. Balances things out and the mood improves.
Well, so good that you're feeling better! It's just such a surprise from day to day, isn't it? I'm slowly increasing Lam and feeling pretty darn good again. Maybe more Lam will be enough for you and you won't have to decide between Dep and Tri. It must a hard decision. I wonder if Tri has the same pork-o-genic factor? That would sure be a deciding point for me. Fat makes me depressed and depression makes me lazy. Catcha later... Barbara

Hey Gals,
I'm in love with Lamictal too. I''m really better. I have to say that I'm impatient as hell tho' and detest driving. Everyone is soooo slow! So I think some of this euphoric/inspiration turns rapidly to raciness/irritation and back again. It's ok tho'. No murders have been committed. It's the med adjusting.I just got back from an intro to Animal Communication. VEry heart wrenching. Got in touch with a doggie of mine that had to go down due to medical problems. Found out that it was the right decision to let him go.
Glad to hear we're all doing better! yay!!!

Triple Yay to us!! Keep remembering that it's a 3 steps forward, 1 step back dance, so when it starts to let down a little, don't get discouraged.
Sorry about your pooch, Katia. It's so heartbreaking to lose an animal friend, almost more so than the human kind. We treat our animals better than we do our humans as far as helping the process of moving on with dignity and ease of suffering.
I went to a number of animal psychics/communicators when a beloved cat was missing. It was very interesting and most pinpointed the area where he was eventually found (but had already made the journey across the Rainbow Bridge). Are you thinking of being trained in this, or was it more as a reading?
I also get flashes of anger but for the most part it's justified, so I can't really blame Lam. I think maybe it's because it's 'freeing me to be me'.
Have you ever tried Neurontin for this? I think I remember you or Katy had some. I'm finding that it mellows me out nicely, and increases the effect of benzos when I need to take them. Keep on happily ascending. - BCat

Hi,
I do have some Neurontin. Maybe I shall try some on those nights with agitation and so forth.I feel quite ok. I feel tired when I should and good and energetic when I should.
I hope hope hope it keeps up.I'm thinking of being trained in this. I already have been tuned into it. just want to now hone in on and fine tune my hearing. It's actually quite easy if we let it be easy.
My doggie died four years ago so some time has passed. Thanks anyway for the words of condolences.nighty night.

Hey Fluffy,
How much Lamictal are you up to? And how often do you go up? This frightens me. I don't want to have to keep going up and up. I felt this way with Effexor before, until I topped out at the maximum does and eventually went to the psyche ward for depression.

Hi Dahlila,
BarbaraCat here. Are you taking Lam right now? I know you were going through alot of uncertainty around meds. Are you feeling OK, better at least? I was going to give Fluff and Katia this bit of advice as well and hope they get the thread.You're probably shooting for some target with Lam based on a 'therapeutic dose' which is somewhere between 200-250mg for the majority of folks. I read here quite frequently that the real magical effect kicks in at that level and there's rarely an increase thereafter.
It's been almost 2 years for me and I'm still at 135mg and feel fine (along with the very necessary 600mg lithium). I'll probably aim for that 'magic' 200mg of Lam just to see what all the excitement is about, but I'll gradually titrate up and carefully monitor how I'm feeling.
I felt great for a few months at 25mg and for almost a year at 50mg. That was my therapeutic level for that point in time and anything more felt jittery and not even necessary. I'd encourage anyone to stay at the level they feel good at and not increase until they start feeling like they need it. You don't need to push it even though someone recommends you reach that therapeutic dose no matter what.
You know, Dahlila, here we all are, taking meds because it's the only way we know how to keep the black beast away. You might as well do it right and take the dose that works for you. Just going part way because of concerns about tolerance, escalating doses, etc., is like being in Limbo. The worry and anxiety is very stressful to your body and probably causing more stress and grief than just going for it with the meds.
Once you're at a point where you're feeling better, you get clearer and can make better judgements about where you want to go with it. You have the motivation to start exercising, the clarity to follow a healthy lifestyle, and all these things help to support a healthier biochemistry.
Once you get all systems working well and supporting each other then you can decide if you want to decrease, go higher still, whatever. But I'd strongly suggest that if you're in a weakened state emotionally and/or physically, don't decrease anything that seems likely to help. Decreasing a med and leaving yourself deficient is destabilizing and depleting. Go for the gold, get strong and healthy, and then you may find you can do with much less. - Barbara

Hi Dalilah--
I hope I didn't unnecesarilly frighten you with my comments about Lamictal. I went back to read your post from earlier in the thread, and you said that you hadn't felt better in years. And hey--that is fantastic!! Don't you worry about my doses and experiences that much if your experience has been a good one! We all have different brain chemestry, symptoms and positive or negative reactions to different drugs. Psychiatry is such a stab in the dark right now--but it's getting better.
But to really answer your question: I started the Lamictal (monotherapy) at 25mg and titrated up every two weeks. I seemed to hit some stability at 150mg. But i was enrolled in a study at a mood disorders center (like NIMH) which required that I get up to a dose of 200mg. I had SOME change at that dose (200mg) but still have had problems with sleep, irritability and a very rhythmic, rapid soft cycling. Lately it's been bad due to the change in the seasons (summer to fall is BAAAAD for me!).
I think I really need to have another mood stabilizer on board to compliment and reinforce the positive effects of Lamictal. That's why I'm shopping for a "mania cap". If Trileptal (don't know what dose) and Lamictal (200mg) stop the cycling but leave me feeling flat, then I may up the Lamictal another notch.
When I last upped my Lam dose to 250mg, I had slurred speach, unsteady-ness, and some cognitive probs, so we kept the dose at 200mg. Compared to lithium, though, the 250mg Lam side effects seem like cake to me!
So--I'm getting comfortable with this tweaking process by now, and I'm confident it will all come out in the wash. But I can really identify with your fears of meds not working and having to go back to the hospital. It's a scary prospect, but not one to be ashamed of. You have a doctor now, (one who is hopefully empathetic and knowledgable) and a diagnosis that "fits" and you will be taken care of. Even if your current regimine doesn't keep you fully in check, you'll probably just need fine tuning. Or you'll be able to stick it out better than before. Don't fret!
Glad you are feeling good now, Dalilah!
Take care,
Katy

Hi again Dalilah--
Just one more comment.. I suppose I said i was "tolerent" to Lam because I seemed to get SOME good effects at lower doses, but they didn't stick unless I went up. Seems that most people reach a threshold for any particular drug between a therapeautic dose and a dose that may cause unbearable side effects. For me right now, that threshold is 200mg, but for others it is waaay higher or waaaay lower.
Sorry for the negativity.
Katy

In reply to Dalilah--Lam tolerance, posted by fluffy on September 28, 2003, at 16:08:31
Thanks Katy and Barbara,
I think you're right. I start worrying and fretting too soon. But, as you know, it's not w/o precedent. When you've been through what we've been through and as many meds, it's hard to be totally positive or secure.
I'm feeling good at 250 but my doc and I are pushing it up to 275 then 300 to see what happens. If it's no better I'll head back to 250, where I feel great for the most part. Last week I was a little higher than I liked one day and yesterday I felt a little low, so I started to feel alarmed, like it was no longer working.
And joke of all jokes, I had the thought that maybe I don't need any of these meds anymore. Dangerous territory, I know. Anyhow I also need my lithium and a small amount of seroquel at night.
It is interesting how different this disease appears in everyone and the different reactions to meds. My sister is bipolar as well and we respond to the same meds more or less, but she needs more of some and I need more of others.
Thanks,
Dalilah

Hi Dalilah,
How is it with the Seroquel? I was taking Ambien for insomnia and stopped because of tolerance and potential exacerbation of depression. I still have problems sleeping and wonder if Seroquel might help since it's also an anti-psychotic and may benefit my BP condition.Do you feel hung over from it in the morning? Any motor disturbances? Dry mouth? Weight gain? Do you think it benefits the BP or is it mainly a sleep aid? Do you know if it interferes with stage IV sleep? I've got fibromyalgia and anything that affects deep sleep is a no-no. Anything other s/e? Thanks for any info on this. - Barbara

Hi Y'all,
Are you splitting your dose of Lam? Like in the am and pm? I'm ramping up real slow and wonder if I should weigh it a little more heavy in the am because of possible activation/insomnia? Any advice? - Barbara

In reply to Lam - split dose?, posted by BarbaraCat on September 28, 2003, at 21:12:08
Hi Barbara,
I take my Lamictal am and pm with the higher dose at night as prescribed by my doc. Eventually it may all be at night. But I've been in the am/pm state for so long I don't mind.
As far as seroquel, I only take 25mg at night and it does the trick for me. Helps me get a solid chunk of sleep. I have no side effects and it definately helps with the BP. How do I know. When I go down or try to go without it, I am in a very bad space heading down down down depression.
I don't know the answer to your question regarding stage IV sleep. I know nothing about that kind of thing.

i also am bipolar and have fibromyalgia. i can't tolerate any ssri's (though god knows the docs tried to get me to take them!), but have had great success with seroquel. it's the only full time med i'm on, augmented by the occasional xanax and vicodin or ultram for pain. i currently have periods of serious premenstrual depression but my quality of life/peace of mind while on seroquel has improved dramatically from the dark place i was early this year. there has been some weight gain, but i suspect that's going to be reversible. since i feel more able to leave the house i am spending more time at the gym (in the pool), which is great for the fibromyalgia (and weight loss). the initial somnolance with seroquel has abated over time, especially since i space out my 100mg a day in 25mg doses. the only bad thing about seroquel (for me) was ultra vivid dreams featuring estranged folks from my past. yucky. after three months, though, it's gotten to be less troublesome/frequent. my sleep cycles are still screwed up occasiopnally, depending on how much pain i'm in from day to day, but i definitely sleep much better now. i no longer feel like i'm being tortured because of an inability to rest...not a good feeling, as i'm sure you know. good luck to you, and let me know how it goes, especially since we have the fibro/BP thing in common.

Hi Sabina,
Thanks so much for responding. I'm sorry for your BP and fibro, but happy for me that there's someone else who is aware of this very challenging (hell, it sucks!) dual condition. When a fibro flare strikes it leaves me incapable of physically dealing with anything, especially bipolar related difficulties. If I'm hypomanic, well too bad, there's no way to release or channel that skittery energy while lying in bed feeling like one big toothache, no energy, exhausted yet wired from anxiety and insomnia. Or depression, when getting up and doing something, anything, is hard enough yet there you are barely able to crawl to the bathroom, can't even escape it through sleep. Even if I can force myself to move, the old cognitive breakdown prevents me from doing simple things like remembering how to tie my shoelaces, assuming I'm able to find my shoes. I feel so dull and stupid which doesn't help with the magnified self-recrimination of depression. This is the extreme end during a flare, but it's always going on at a lesser level.I'd like to believe that getting a really good night's sleep is half the battle with fibro and if seroquel helps with this, then I'm all for it. I've weaned myself off ambien and valium for sleep and for the first time in a long time had a good rest last night, so I'm going to see if I can continue 'au natural'. I'd like to not add another med unless it's really going to benefit me.
Is it primarily for sleep or do you think it's helping your BP condition in other ways? I know that it's an antipsychotic. Since starting lithium 2 years ago I haven't had one of my horrible black mixed state depressions, but they were truly psychotic in their nightmarish quality. An antipsychotic would probably have helped alot then, but I wonder if it would be indicated now since psychosis hasn't been a problem. But maybe there are other benefits besides AP and sleep aid?
One of my concerns about seroquel is what I've read on this board as far as causing long term rebound insomnia once reducing or discontinuing. How about dry mouth? That was a big problem for me with nortriptyline and why I eventually stopped. I had a hard time talking without making smacking sounds with my parched lips.
Have you come up with any theories about why you've come down with fibro? My personal feeling is that it's probably genetic, but mainly stress based - chronic intense stress damaging the hypothalamus from doing it's hormonal job. I know this stress theory is very unpopular with many fibro advocacy groups, but it makes the most sense in my case. Having bipolar or fibro is bad enough, but having both together - yikes! Makes me wonder about their interrelation. Looking forward to hearing from you. - Barbara

Hi Sabina,
Wait, wait. I just reread your post. Do you mean that seroquel is the MAIN med you're on for BP? How could this be? No lithium, depakote, tegretol, lamictal, trileptal, topamax, dilantin - did I miss any? Were you on any of these previously? Yes, I know about SSRI's. They made me worse too, but lithium and Lam are helping - does squat for fibro however. But seroquel does it all for you? Now, that would be a miracle if it helped both fibro and BP!!! - Barbara

hey guys...sleep dep sucks. That's why i'm not around...first fell down the stairs and then biffed my head on a stone table later. No concussion but we went to the hospital anyway. Doc presribed seroquel to knock the heck out me and deposit my brain to the Land Of REMs...I fought right through 100 mg. Sucha a stubborn and willful gal, huh? At the ER they gave me Geodon which did end up prevailing but I had nasty s/e. I had tried Zyp in the past (actually for sleep too) and i felt like my head was spinning around (Exorcist style)...vomiting etc.
Oy- aren't we all so interesting? I think we should just love to be us because we have such diverse moods, wackadoodle neurotransmitters and uncannily (is that word i wonder. don't care) similar intellecutal.

Ewww. That IS yucky. I guess the people from your past are always there in the recesses of your frontal lobe somewhere! My dreams have been kooky on the Provig. And are wicked funny. A good time is had by all. I started talking in my sleep and my husband ends up laughing so hard (or I do, because i apparently guffaw while asleep now and then. Hmm what does that say about me?)

Hi Barb,
Don't know if you were following another thread or if it still is here; but it was about Seroquel (and the next day blues).
I've been taking it occassionally for sleep (1/4 of 25mg) and normally wake up off balance and a bit depressed. It helps with the sleep tho'. There were a few others experiencing what I experienced.
It's all individual as you know.

Hi Katia,
It sure is individual. So many different med reactions by those of us with similar d/x's. I'd like to not take an AP, just one more thing, I hated Zyprexa (felt similar nextday disorientation) and don't need any more pork producers, thank you very much. I've been cooling it for the most past with glass o' D and been sleeping so much better. This past Saturday was a reality test. I was using some wine for cooking and thought 'oh, what the heck' and ended up drinking 1/2 the bottle thinking I'd been a good girl and probably wouldn't feel bad from it. Wrong. Didn't sleep well, woke up with a mild hangover and felt fried the whole day. Yesterday, no alcohol, slept great and feel pretty darn good today, like doing normal things - even got back into playing piano again and that is very satisfying.Hard liquor doesn't bother me at all the way wine does. Probably because I don't drink very much of it, but it also has a different effect on my bod. Problem is, it's wine, that pissy putrid swampwater, that I long for. Hope your days are continuing to feel lighter and brigher. - Barbara

muchas gracias for that aside about sero-q - I've been drinking like a..well, a ...camel (?) and had no idea why my mouth was so dry! It's been a tad incontinent, I mean inconvenient to be drinking so much water, diet vanilla coke, etc. Esp last night and the night before at the hospital. 'If she's nodding off like this there's no way she can go into the bathroom' was followed up with Kar lying on a cold, cardboard life preserver trying to go.
