I am new to this seizure curse. At 72 had first in March of 2022 and have had 3 more since. All nocturnal. DX tonic-clonic. Keppra 500 mg twice daily was first med and my hair came out terribly. Also the fatigue was so bad I couldn’t function. I was diagnosed with sleep apnea after the first seizure. Still trying to cope with cpap. Now on generic Viapat (lacosimide) and hair loss and fatigue stopped completely. Will see if seizures have stopped.
