Yes, but it is BP II.

> He put me on Keppra and Wellbutrin XL. I suppose that is part of why I have felt a little better this week too. That is the only thing that can account for my getting motivated to exercise.
> Hey, my doc put me on the same!!! But we dropped the Keppra and are adding trileptal as a mood stablizer, because keppra's not working as a mood stablizer. I also agreed to try the whole fish oil thing.....why not, if it will help, I guess.
> I am sorry you are still suffering those extremes. I hope you are having a better day today.
I feel a bit better, but I also feel ready to "go at" my husband.....:( sigh......
Are you on a mood stabilizer?
Haven;t tried the trileptal yet...just hope it does something. Right now I am just trying to keep it together with klonopin and neurontin. Maybe the wellbutrin is what has given me some motivation to exercise too!Best of luck and thank you,
Diane
