    • Close Epilepsy & Seizures

      I had my first and only seizure August 19,2006. I was put on Topamax when I left the hospital. Now I am on 100mgs of Topamax and 1000mgs of Keppra. I have not had anymore seizure, just the one.

      Treatments

      Keppra Working / Worked
      I am tired all the time, I get pretty bad headaches. I am not sure if it is working. No seizures but I can hardly make it through a 40 hour week of work.
      Topamax Working / Worked
      I am tired all the time, I get pretty bad headaches. I am not sure if it is working.No seizures but I can hardly make it through a 40 hour week of work
      Depakote Working / Worked
      Seems to be working. Took the Migrane headaches away that seemed to be here everyday. 1000mgs Depakote ER, 100 mg Topamax. Yes the weight gain, but I am hoping to taking care of that after recovering from my car accident. I have the trembling also. That was kinda strange nice to know what it is and what is causing it.
