Trial for new epilepsy med

Ignore last sentence.

Scary episode on vacation in late June. Rare mistake of taking all epilepsy at midnight, then again at 7 am. Didn't realize it until I started feeling really weird. Got off couch and was absolutely impossible to walk a straight line. Lasted 3 hours. Kept calling the 24 hour trial emergency line but no one answered (it was Sunday). Very disturbing and scary. I skipped Sunday night's meds.

Hi @cathy5161
What you've been through sounds very scaring. If I understand correctly, this happened while you were still participating in the trial, correct?
I'm so happy to hear that you haven't experienced any withdrawal effects—that's truly a blessing. 🙏
I hope your appointment with your doctor next week goes well. Please keep me posted on how everything goes.
Chris
