Default re meds affecting work

I am at the point of having to make a decision about my job. I am on 600 mg lyrica and started lamictal. I am a zombie in the morning, exactly 1 1/2 hours of taking my meds and the zombie state lasting 3 hours. I do accounting and it's all I can do to type, talk on the phone due to dizziness, drowsiness and plain stoned out. My doctor will provide me a note to support my decision to only work afternoons. It's hard to admit that I have become "disabled" due to meds. If my meds wear off in their effectiveness, MVD is the next step for me. Has anyone else gone through this adjustment? I have worked for 25 years now and finding it hard to "let go". I have lost some credibility in my position and that's hard to take.
