Stephen,
Welcome to the group. I have complex partial seizures, which is from the
result of a head injury. I take Keppra XR and Neurontin for my seizures.
They are nowhere near controlled, but the surgery I had a few years ago,
they aren't as bad as they used to be.There is plenty of information and
lots of friends here. If you need anything, write anytime. Take care.
