Now that i had that horome imbalance I had to make sure its under control. Finally I return back to epiletologist and neurololgist see I studied Medical terminolgy these words should be remembered. So now after the 25th I return for testing, etc. Communication socially has been helpful. 24hr is also helpful. Wlaking is helpful. Talking is helpful. Hygiene really comforts me. massages seem to be great. I will be back with a new plan of care due to memory, stability, congnitive, and keyboarding, agression really agressive. This is the testing I notice very frustrating.

3 Reactions@methel I stopped meds in 2012 as I had no luck with drugs I tried over about 8yrs. What are the drugs you are on & what type of seizures do you have. Glad they have worked for you. Take Care

1 ReactionI’m sorry that you haven’t been able to get relief from your seizures. It’s a very difficult situation to deal with. My seizures have been focal which occasionally would generalize.
For me it maybe was slightly easier for the neurologist to know what drugs to try. I had surgery for a meningioma that caused a stroke. The combination of tumor, stroke and surgery left me with a “scar on the brain” according to him. He tried Keppra and kept increasing the dose. I kept having seizures, but milder and milder as the dose increased. Finally the phlebotomist who drew my blood for the Keppra titer volunteered that she had epilepsy and regular Keppra did not control her seizures, but extended release Keppra did. I asked my neurologist about Keppra XR and he agreed to try it and it worked. Best wishes as you go forward.
