Hi Louis,
I checked Briviact's leaflet and fatigue and fever are listed as possible side effects of this AED. I can relate: I had quite a bit of fatigue starting Keppra, and some light fever on Vimpat. It does take time for the body to adjust to a new medication and its dosage.
Please report all of this to your doctor, including the seizures you mentioned. You have an appointment this week, right?
Take care!
Chris

Hi Chris,

Thank you so much and I appreciate it. I have an appointment on Thursday. Let's see how it goes. I am just not so sure the side effect, if any, will appear this late into the consuming of one medication. I was off Keppra as the neurologist thought, and I also believed, it seemed it do nothing much for me. Cutting it off also didn't make things worse.

Cheers,
Louis
