you probably dont need this anymore..im being treated for bi-polar as well..although ive been told i dont have it. when i first started takin lamictal since i was 13 and when i took it at first i had little red patches come up on my stomach..i went to the doctor and it was gone 2 weeks later..like i said im sure you dont need this now but i saw that i had something similar and it was ok.
