I have had epilepsy since I was a baby. I
was put on medication and for the same
reasons I am having right now my mother
would slowly take me off the medications.
My question is why does the medication
affect me the way it does?
Effects of the medication:
constantly tired in and out of it.
Sometimes incoherant. Very dizzy and
light headed. My head spins. And I feel
the need to lay down most of the time.
Can you help me

I am not sure how old you are, but
consistancy of use of epilepsy medication
is extremely important. You need to speak
with your neurologist and take the
medication exactly as perscribed. Discuss
any problems with him or her. It does
take weeks and sometimes months to get
used to these meds.
I take topamax for migraines and know it
can take a long time to get used to them.
Hang in there, but please< talk over
these problems with your doctors, and not
just these kind of internet boards.
