Your symthoms may be seizures, medication side effects, diet or a pinched nerve. Are you taking other medication, one drug can interact with another.

I used Gabapentin years ago and was a zombie the next day. Talk to your doctor about trying another seizure drug. Don't eat and drink only water 4 hours before bedtime.

Not all seizures have the same symthoms and not all neurologists understand seizures. One neurologists gave me a 10 minutes EEG then told me I wasn't having seizures because I didn't flop aound like a fish.

Another neulogist diagnosed my seizures, had me under control, I felt better and foolishly tried to lower my medication and was hospitalized because of it.

I had another seizure while in the hospital. I don't remember it, didn't know until the neurologist came in afterwards and was talking with the nurse. Their conversation was: Nurse, "we heard him all the way down to the nurses station, doctor, "I would have thought he was faking had I not saw that", nurse, "we called in the stroke team". I now know that I screamed during the seizure and my blood pressure and heart rate skyrocketed. The hospital neurologist told me I had a seizure, prescribed the maximum Trileptal and left the room.

Get a second opinion if you aren't getting the results you want.

have you always had seizures? I think mine is medication - I have never had these issues ever and I am 42. I am going to try a new drug once I see a new dr. Gabapentin makes my belly cramp and also I shake the next day.
