My first question is...does your doctor know your are on generic Lamictal? My second is...have you had EEG's showing when you are having seizures and what part of the brain they are coming from? I know, I have seizures in my sleep. This has messed up my sleep pattern. On nights I have a terrible time falling asleep, I will get up drink some tea, and tinker around my place for a little bit. Then lay back down to have another round of tossing and turning or sweet dreams.
Did you notice any changes in your sleep when your medicine was added or adjusted? Always have open channels of communication with your doctor. I guess that is a no brainer, but it is completely true. Sometimes just a little change in things can make all the difference in things.
Best of luck...
To Sweet Dreams in the Near Future,

> I have a terrible time getting to sleep at night even without any caffeine during the day. I am on lamictal (Lamotrigine- generic lamictal) 150 mg twice a day and Gabapentin 600 mg at night and I can not get to sleep. I have tried Melatonin and this doesn't help either.
