Hi kmr3,

Glad to hear you're doing since switching medications.

When I had that seizure a few years ago, I was put on Keppra, too. It did not agree with me! Being irritable & tired to name just a few problems.... My doctor put me back on phenobarbital. (I was taking that drug before my surgery.) I'm on a low dose, but it seems to be working. So many of these seizure drugs can make you feel like a zombie. Like after I get home for work, I'm exhausted. If I don't keep moving, I'm worthless! What about you?

Early afternoon is my time for exhaustion. Even caffeine doesn’t help! But moving around does seem to help.
