Lose balance because legs turn to rubber Can't break the fall because arms are also failing.

Hi BillBlaiseBrusca
I see my dr once a yr for check up and refills,, Of all my Neurolgy this one takes his job seriously and then come to find out he is on the board and is one of the top drs in Mich on epelipsy,, I been taking XR Tegretal 11 yrs now with no side affect,Never did hav a problem with tegretal and if I ever did hav a problem my dr gave me his cell no. I had to call him one time cause a pharmist try to give me generic and he call them and straighted that out, they never try again. I will never change from this dr,

I've been taking Lamictal XR for years and never had a problem before.

The only time I fell from rubbery legs , Is when I had just got off of work. My leg muscles were a little tight. So I went for a night walk to try and loosen them. After awhile from walking ,not only were my leg muscles loose but it felt like my legs turned into jello
