I’ve been taking 300mg 3x day at 8am, 2pm, and with 225mg lacosamide at 8pm, since 2013. I can’t take it with my 8am lacosamide as it will make me sleepy. I’ve tried dropping both deugs or cutting a dose, and had daytime seizures.

I have sleep headaches that wake me up just about every night on a run, which is 1-2 weeks usually. Then I’ll be ok for about the same and then they’ll start again. Some nights I wake up 1x and some 2-3x. I usually go to bed about 10:30pm. The time I wake up is usually different. Sometimes 1-2am, or 3-5am, or 6-7am. I’ve tried to track it to food, sleep time, room condition, daytime activity etc and none of it seems causal. I do think stress plays a part in it.

No matter what time I wake up in the am finally I always feel rough. It takes me an hour after my 8am lacosamide before I can get out of bed and start functioning
