Re: [epilepsy] Re: Non epileptic seizires

 

I get chronic migraines as well and am on Trileptol for seizures and about 3 headache meds.  I get migraines mostly when I have to concentrate or am on the computer or read too long

I was recently diagnosed with non epileptic seizures. I was diagnosed with chronic migraine, and I am now being treated with nortriptyline. The doctors told me that it could also be caused by anxiety, and they treat that with anti-anxiety medication, such as Zoloft. So far, the nortriptyline is working. I haven't had any sign of a seizure for almost 2 weeks, when I had been having daily seizures. I also never lost consciousness from my seizures. When I had an eeg, the flashing lights triggered seizures, which I was told was common with chronic migraine.
