Hello I am a bipolar Manic depressive that has been as such since my time in the military in 1992. I have been on high levels of lithium since then. It is catching up to me. Shaking hands, increased urniation and the works including losss of libido. It was never this bad but it is now. I tried tegrotol did not work. I have a doctor at the VA but she seems on a tight schedule. I was wondering if there are meds with less side effects I can ask to switch to
