[epilepsy] New Here and just started on Keppra

 

I am new to the list but not new to seizure meds . I have been on Dilantin and phenobarbitol since 1971. I had one nocturnal seizure and after many tests and even brain surgery the cause was unknown. So the years passed and I was kept on meds. 2 years ago I had some sort of seizure while driving and yes a crash, minor injuries totaled 2 cars and was then seizure free for almost 2 years still on dilantin. Now 2 weeks ago the repeat happened and another car accident. Now the Neuro puts me on Keppro and I am weeding off dilantin. So now that I can not drive again (and Im sure I migh never want to again) I feel like a prisioner and I am pretty scared I guess. Most people say they know how it feels but they really cant. I am sure this group does. So any info on keppra that might help me would be appreciated. Lyn
