[epilepsy] generic lamictal v/s No M S G 3847

 

           Whoever said generic drugs are as good as the brand drugs must have been on drugs themselves. It is a lie, as my vision now is more blurry and it is at a longer range now than what is was taking the brand drug lamictal seeing blurry words at a short distance. I called my doctors office and they're in the process of appealing the insurance companys decision to only cover the generic brand. I am really at the crossroad and am all but ready to say the hell with all medicines knowing how they seem to affect me in one way or another.
    There was a time in 1990 when I went 10 months taking NO AED's. That was the best time in my life knowing how I was feeling until I got laid off from my job that I liked, due to the 1991 recession then. Of course STRESSSSSSSSSS  happened instantly and two weeks later I had my 3rd Grand Mal seizure at 30 years old. NO I did not know anything then about nitrates and M S G but hot dogs made me have auras in those early years.   So in my case if STRESSSSSSS,  M S G  and NITRATES triggers my seizures, all I need to do is not eat those foods and stay calm about everything. Emagine a doctor agreeing on that  LOL LOL LOL. But no I will have to take medicine for all my life as long as they say I need to take it. I believe 49 years is long enough for anyone taking AED's. Who is to say these chemicals from all the drugs I have been on all my life, is not doing something else to my brain I do not know about now ? How many other neurological
conditions are there besides epilepsy ?  Drugs are the doctors answers for us all with any nuerological condition. M S G can cause any of those conditions as well as epilepsy. So has anyone else here have been wondering as I have about our foods and how safe they are to eat? Any of us can have a seizure from nitrates or M S G. It is a crime that our government is allowing M S G and nitrates to still be allowed in our foods we eat. CAUTION>>>  All foods I have seen with labels of NO MSG !!! or MSG FREE !!! has M S G in them. Has anyone else had bad results from generic lamictal ?
