      They never told me I had a seizure during one of my hospital stays for another illness. Nine months later My neighbor finds me in Grand mal seizures, they tell me I had them all day and at the hospital. I have no memory of days before or after? Learning to live w/this has been difficult for my children and myself.

      Treatments

      Dilantin Not Working
      Had seizure on medication, currently being weined off this.
      Topamax Working / Worked
      Still having episodes of stroke like symptoms which Dr. thinks is an auro to migraine.he said that I am on to much antiseizure med. to have any type seizure? side effects sleep all day confusion irritable weak drymouth memory problems, I cannot seem to find my words and this is very embarrassing!!!
