Thank you! I am guessing from reading all the comments that finding the right med could be quite a process. I am learning a lot from “listening to everyone” so I am grateful …

Hi @baac
What I have learned since I have been diagnosed with epilepsy in 2019 (I am 52 years old now), is that everyone is different. As @jakedduck1 has mentioned some people get control of seizures with the first medication. Hope you stay well with this medication.
One thing that has helped me much when I got diagnosed was learning about my own epilepsy, something that the Epilepsy Foundation recommends much. Their site (Epilepsy.com) is very informative and has helped me much. I recommend it!!!
Happy New Year to All of You!
