this explains a lot
from webmd:
Most people tolerate lamotrigine very well. Common side effects include:
Rash. Rash tends to occur more often in children than in adults and in people who are also taking valproic acid. On rare occasions, the rash may be severe and potentially life-threatening.
Drowsiness.
Difficulty falling or staying asleep (insomnia).
Dizziness.
Blurred or double vision.
Headache.
Nausea.
so, no fatal rash, but i haven't been able to sleep ever since my doses went up to 100mg. good golly, it is getting hard on me. i woke up 3 times last night for an hour (at least!) each time.
the stupid part? glad you asked. the less sleep i get, the more seizures i have.
