My doc didn't return my call giving a reason why I can't take metabolite. Is it the ephedran? Not sure I spelled that right. Can't seem to drop those 10lbs I would like to drop. I exercise at least an hour and ahalf daily. What's the big deal??? On another note... My hair has been thinning since I started lamictal back in June 1999. I am sick of it. Just about ready to get off of it. I have been to an endocrinolgist. He tested my level of testosterone ( I had an oopharectomy at 33 because my mother died of ovarian cancer. Unfortunately, her sister did to, 20 years before her). The testosterone has given me an incredible libido. The doc said my level was high so he told my obgyn to half the dose and increase the estrogen. I get an injection every five weeks. He told me my hair should start growing back eventually. It has been at least 3 months and no sign. I think the culprit is lamictal even though this is not listed on the info. about lamictal. I want to talk to people who have been on this drug for at least ayear. It has been a lifesaver. Other drugs certainly haven't worked for me. I take zinc supplents. I use zinc shampoo, and rogaine for women. Please help me out. Thank you for being such a saint on this web site. Hope you know how much all these people including me appreciate your input. God Bless!!!
