[epilepsy] keppra

 

Increase in keppra from 500mg twice daily to 1000mg twice daily with the 600mg lamictal already on. Keppra is a "new" drug for me. The lamictal worked well for so long.Now I have more hand tremors, noticed having more involuntary jerking movements at nite. Not convulsions, just jerking,not sure if it is related to the muscle spasms or not. I can feel this feeling of "electrical surges" shooting up back of my neck at times mostly at night. So I really don't know if this is d/t the meds or if type of seizure. I go to a different neuro. on the 10th. Had eeg and 3 mri 5th of last month and of course not talked to just here take this, wasn't happy with hospital at all so my doctor is sending me to the neuro he sees. Anyway I also don't feel hungry and when i do eat i feel overly full and nausea.Does any one have any of these issues?
