> I think that you should talk to your doctor about it. Maybe drop the propanol and see what happens.
Be sure to taper the propranolol as per your doctor's suggestions. You don't want to trigger a rebound hypertensive reaction or tachycardia.

I agree with this sentiment. There is no arbitrary upper limit to the number of drugs that one may need to take.
Have you established that you definitely need both the Ambien and Seroquel for sleep?
What dosage of Lamictal are you taking?
I think Topamax is a good choice for mixed states, but I don't know if I would use it primarily for weight control. It is done all the time, I know. Just make sure you drink plenty of liquids to avoid developing kidney stones.
What do you need from treatment that you are not currently getting?
