Default Lamectal high dose side effects vs, Lyrica withdrawl

My shrink has been messing with my meds again.... Increased my lamictal to 600mg at bed time, no longer sleeping, balance more than a little off stand up literally sway in the air and wander with a WIDE gait stumble drunk kind of thing. Also falling due to this balance I am very afraid of my stairs to my bedroom. Also am terrible time finding words, speech slurred at times. Doc said to let him know ASAP if I experienced any one of this, so done. Have ran out of Lyrica have been only taking 75 mg twice daily. Tried to increase it to 3 xs daily which I did not tolerate, had almost at once swelling in my feet and legs. So what is the general opinion of the house which one is causing what?

Default downsizing Lamictal vs Lyrica

In the past six months I have reduced from 500 mg per day down to 100 mg per day. It was rough. The reduction of the Lyrica was much milder. Good luck.
