I'm currently on:

lithium 1350mg
Welbutrin 400mg
Remeron 45mg
Invega 6mg

My doctor has been tinkering with them each month, but I haven't seen a real change (after the initial benefit). One or the combo has helped to eliminate the highs and to reduce the severity of the lows (and I'm not confident of the meds ability to do this each month--I'm afraid that one of these cycles I'm going to get really low again and have to go back to the hospital).

I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for here...perhaps a cure *roll eyes*
But any input will be appreciated.

I'd start by talking to your pdoc--voice your concerns about not seeing a lot of change.
