Seizures are more common after hemorrhagic strokes, compared to ischemic strokes. Why do you believe they are psychogenic verses abnormal electrical induced seizures (epilepsy?)
Do you know what is causing them?
If you're going to discontinue any seizure medication, discontinue it slowly just in case it is epilepsy. If you do have epilepsy, discontinuing seizure, medication's too quickly can cause a very dangerous seizure activity known as status epilepticus, which requires immediate medical intervention. Always better to air on the side of caution.
Best wishes to you.
Take care,
Jake

My neurological "team" have deemed my "episodes" as "anxiety and depression based" so I dont think from that diagnosis that I have epilelipsy But Im very confuses since I have had different doctors say different things. I feel like a guinea pig with me changing dosages
