Hi Lisa! Thank yoou for the concern. The trigger may be my more than usual time in front of the computer screen and slightly busier week all ellse being more or less the same. The seizure is more mild but still lasting 20sec or so (after factoring all the recovering time) than before Briviact. My caregiver didn't notice I had seizures sometimes. I am not losing hope just yet as it seems like the drug does work, but external factors which can be reasonably controlled are triggering seizures.

Let's see.

Cheers,
Louis

Hi Louis,
I'm happy to hear you have not lost hope because of these seizures you had this past weekend. As you have well noted, this might be due to the changes made by your doctor in your medications.
As you mentioned, your caregiver did not notice some of the seizures. I'm wondering if these were just focal seizures.
Have you reported these seizures to your doctor? And how has your week started - did the seizures stop?
Chris
