I’ve been grappling with unmanageable epilepsy since I was 16, having tried all available medications. I’ve been to the Epilepsy Clinic twice, where they wean you off all medications and monitor your brain activity round the clock with an EEG, while also recording video to capture all angles of your seizures. A particular medication plunged me into a relentless cycle of seizures that persisted even months after discontinuing the drug. This has been a nightmare for me and my family. My husband and his mother have had to step in to care for me and our two boys, aged 8 and 3. I don’t experience any warning signs before a seizure and can collapse anywhere, anytime. This medication has exacerbated this issue, causing daily seizures. If you’re considering this medication, I hope your experience is more positive than mine.
