Lithium Tablets

hi,

been on lithuim tablets for just under 7 weeks,started on 300mg twice a day,and after 4 weeks things seemed to be easing,went from 7 to 8 attacks a day/night,down to 3/4 a day/night.

last thursday was increased to 400mg twice a day,since then the last five days have been bad almost a return to were i was before starting them.

just wondering if anyone else has ever had this happen with these tablets?

because after 74 days of this nightmare more or less non-stop,struggling to see any signs of it coming to an end :-( 

any advice or other's experience would be nice,please
