[epilepsy] Re: Your experience with Keppra

 

You're right of course there are so many kinds of epilepsy. What I have is temporal lobe epilepsy as the result of a brain infection nearly 45 years ago - damage not localised enough for surgery. But for me (at the moment) Keppra has been a life saver. It's just the .... memory that gets me. I am trying to keep the paths thro my brain active by studying another language but it's not easy

Lamictal didn't work well for Megan, so they added Keppra to the mix, but even both of those drugs at the maximum doses didn't control her seizures. Megan had a lot of problems with aggression and feeling angry while on Keppra, and I understand that is a common side effect.
