Recently I was diagnosed with epilepsy in
the form of petit mal seizures, and was
put on medication. The first few days
there seemed to be no side effects, but
now (a couple of weeks later) I have
noticed and been told that my
concentration is seriously lacking. For
instance, at work another employee asked
me a question as I walked by, she asked me
aqain and again but I completely ignored
her and continued on. I recall her
questioning me but for the life of me
cannot figure out why I didnt stop. This
happens quite randomly, although I am
aware of my actions I dont seem to stop
nor do I have any reason not to. Has
anyone heard of or experienced this
before, any suggestions would be greatly
appreciated

Hi there, there are a lot of prescription
meds that do this. What meds are you
on. I would suggest talking to the Dr.
About this.
Sincerely,
sandy

Thank you for a quick reply, this is
really starting to scare me especially now
that I have to walk everywhere that I used
to drive (still I suppose its better than
driving). I take 500 mg of epival twice
a day, I plan to talk to my doctor soon,
maybe he can give me somthing else.
Thank you again for your reply.
