[epilepsy] I need some advice

 

Hi Everyone:

I've been taking Atival since October. (I also take lamotrigine, and divalproex(. When I first started taking it, I was taking it 2 or 3 times a day, even though I didn.t really need it all those times. That's when I noticed the prescription said only when needed. So that's what I started going. I could go 3 or 4 days before I'd need one, and one would do me for another 3 or 4 days. (I should mention I was only given 30 pills. so I guess I was trying to make them last.) The last few days I haven't been feeling all that great. There's been different times that I've felt kind of dizzy, and not real steady on my feet.

There's also been times that I've felt a hard time breathing/swallowing. My regular doctor is away and won't be back untill the 10th. There is an after hours clinic I can go to, or I go to outpatients, or I can just wait untill my doctor comes back.He knows about the swalling problem. It was him that put me the atival.

So, what do you guys think? What should I do?

Thanks

David
