I was taking lithium and depakote for 10 years. Did not do much. I was chronic all along. Plus it made me fat. (no comments please)
Switched to lithium and verapamil in January and it has broken my chronic(ness?). Still get the odd attack, but have only had 2 or 3 attacks stronger than Kip 5 or 6 since then, so see if your Doc will let you give it a try. As far as I am concerned, these two drugs are the best cocktail I have had in 19 years!!!
Good luck to you!
