Im 29 going on 30 in two months. I have
been diagnosed with epilepsy since I was a
baby. My problem since forever is the
medication. I do bad with medication they
can put me on the lowest doses wich dont
completely control them but they still
make me feel overly medicated what can I
do and is there anything that I should do
I mean sleeping all the time wont work
with getting a job and im depending on ssi
approving me so im not sure which is worse
the seizures or being on the medication

Have you tried any of the diets? They
have some success for adults on south
beach or atkins for seizures. They also
have the vagus nerve stimulator that helps
some who have epilepsy.
I am sorry that none of the meds seems to
help at all. There are a lot of meds out
there, but all have a lot of sides.
