Suggest treatment for type 1 bipolar disease
Patient: I am not epileptic; I am bipolar, type 1 with psychosis (possibly schizoaffective instead). I stopped taking my medicines on Sunday night. I missed, among others, my keppra (off label), trileptal and lithium. I take 1000 mg keppra BID; 300 mg trileptal AM, 600 mg trileptal PM; 300mg lithium BID. While I have had definite positive effects, my brain just did something weird. It, well, pulsed. I just took all of the above drugs. I see my doc tomorrow. He does not know I did this. Am I OK?
