Stick with it Leanne ; it's quite common for Carbamazepine (& other meds) to cause unpleasant symptoms for the first couple of weeks whilst it's assimilating. Rejecting an unfamiliar chemical is the body's protective reaction against harm until it eventually proves acceptable.
Hope it'll resolve sooner rather than later and that you'll start benefitting from the treatment. Keep us updated..... Cat x
