Changing things...

Okay. I'll debrief you quickly. I saw my neurologist in mid-September and she decided to lower my Lamictal XR since we are now using my Keppra XR as the regulatory drug. So, for the past few weeks, I've been taking:

Lamictal XR 200mg 2x/daily
Keppra XR 1250mg 2x/daily
Zonegran 25mg at night 

So far, still feeling good about my decisions. It feels good to be somewhat back to normal. However, it's November and I'm still not driving with Colin. Ugh. 

I'm going to reopen the discussion with Dave during the holidays and have him put the car seat in my car. I'm going into my 6th month with no changes. Eventually, I am going to have to be allowed to live a normal life. Dave said he wanted me to wait until Spring - but I think that's kind of insane to have me wait that long. His logic is to wait until the winter is over and avoid the snow. But, just because it's winter months doesn't mean automatically there is snow everywhere. 

Signing off. That conversation juat frustrates the hell out of me.
