I have it. The jerks and twitches can be annoying especially when I’m very tired. They also love to wake me in my sleep causing even more poor sleep. But at age 41 I’m so thankful they finally found what is wrong with me. That took a 3-5 min full seizure with no memory to finally get answers. But I’m thankful for a very good ER doc and neurologist. Thank you, and thank you the vlog. Very very helpful.
I'm sorry you're living with epilepsy. I'm thankful you have a good care team around you! Please keep us posted if you don't mind. Best of luck and it's my pleasure to post these videos.
It's hard to say since they can't give a personal account. However, most clinical symptoms aren't associated with crying so it's assumed that they are not painful
My 4 yr old just had second in six months. It’s like she’s in a very deep sleep and dreaming and starts stretching and tensing up and kind of talking. Cant wake her up when it happens. Not sure if it’s a seizure or not. It is scary. And advice or help appreciated
I'm so sorry to hear that. My advice is to be evaluated by a neurologist. Make sure you capture the episode on video before your visit so the doctor can see what is going on.
This drug made my wife extremely sick,she was on it for one month and still isn’t feeling normal also has developed some for of dress syndrome.Be very careful ❗️ with this in my opinion a nasty drug that messes with the brain.
@GilSolanoREEGT Thank you for your kind words, my wife suffered a brain hemorrhage and has been on Sodium Valproate for many years, the fact she's never been checked, They told us the medication may have caused damaged to her brain, that why they introduced Keppra. It been stop now but my wife is still not back to normal. More worrying they are testing now for signs of dementia. She has been totally let down by our health service.
Are used to take the extended release, but it got to be too much to handle after a while so my neurologist made it so that I take the same strength by it take three tablets in the morning and three tablets at night
I think I have this going on, anytime I have anything hot , or heat up.im aware of everything but switch off , I have a set of symptoms , I can tu r n it off eventually with cold ,hands shake, get jerky, I lock onto something and can't look away, head shakes to left side then I slow down , speech goes really weird, then I am super tired,
Hello dr i take sodium valporate since 2015 and few weeks ago i decreased the medicne and i feel nervousness and fast heart beat its there any solution or medicne to decreasing sodium valporate pls answer
I was just prescribed Topiramate today for seizures. I'm a little confused about how it's supposed to stop the electric current, because my understanding was that a seizure occurs when the electric current stops or gets interrupted. I was on Dilatin and Gabapentin, but Doc says this is a better medication for me. I really hope this works, cause everyday is horrifying thinking that I can have a seizure at any given moment. Thank you for your channel. Best regards...
Hello! Thanks for the question. An epileptic seizures is burst of uncontrolled electrical activity. Medications are used to help control the electrical activity. I truly hope you get the right medication you need!
20 years on Klonopin 0 seizures 5 months kepra and almost died twice. Kepra is not safe for Epileptic seizures so far and spent 2 months In ICU almost dead instead of at work and safe on Klonopin. Drs are crazy
Sorry for your experience. Medications work differently for different people. I'm glad you found the right medication. However, misleading to say that Kepra is not safe is a gross generalization.
This drug work EXCELLENT FOR Pseudopapiledema as this can cause massive migraines also. The tingling, dopy feeling & many of the side effects listed will go away eventually. This medication cause weight lost also which is needed for this condition. I would say just work closely with your doctors. It's totally safe.

I was on Deppakote for a long time before Keppra, and what we found me and my neurologist doctor at the time when I lived in Michigan was that Depakote was making me gain weight and it was also making me lose my hair, so they were looking for a different medication with no those side effects and that’s why they put me on Keppra and so far it’s been working
I tried Lamictal years back and actually it caused me to have a lot of breakthrough seizures, which is why I am on Keppra so far Keppra seems to be working for me
This probably happens with highly sensitive person (HSP). I'm saying that because I'm HSP and also used to have epilepsy probably because emotional and stress factors. In about 20 year they never found the cause in my brain. Maybe I just did😊

This happened to my husband with the shock of finding our baby had died from SUIDS. He fell to the ground onto his back, his knees were bent up and his body was jerking off the ground. He quickly recovered from the episode although for us both the grief and trauma of the day has never left us.
I'm so sorry to hear about this. I hope you and your husband find healing. You have went through one of the most devastating experiences ever. Peace and hope to you.
My son was on Keppra twice p/Day and clobazam at night, that worked for 2 months and dr suggested reduce Keppra slowly…we were half way of the withdrawal and seizures came back, we increased again slowly and seizures got worst to the point he got Todd Syndrome on his right leg and arm. Now we are beginning to control the seizures still on Keppra + clobazam day and night. Not very high dose but im concern if this work and need to be permanent because I was hoping Keppra would do the work itself. He referred us to an epileptiologist but He will wait months before they see him. He’s 10y/o No side effects with Keppra bit I’m surprised how they came back harder when reducing the dosage.

Horrible medication!! My grandma was prescribed that for seizures and it caused her to lean on one side when she walked and ate, she lost her strength and her body became stiff and heavy. She was admitted to the ER because that medication caused her to lose so much balance and she fell and hit her head and had to get a transfusion of platelets. I do not recommend this medication to ANYONE
I hate all of these medications. I am doing my best to take them day by day (Firts 1 month after craniotomy, I was on Keppra and fall into depression and suicidal thoughts; none of my parents believed which was the worst part, they thought I was just down because of the surgery and that made me believe "Perhaps I am going crazy because my brain is still swollen" and then I investigated, proofed myself by taking the risk of not dose for two days and my old self returned) I am now using Phenytoin after talked with my doctor, he recommended 100 mg x3 during the day, but I am just taking 150 mg I know I should follow the instructions but I don't want to feel worse again which I know is going to happen again 😢
My daughter was diagnosed with JME last Feb at the age of 17. Since then she has not been able to drive because she may go 4 or 5 months without a seizure and then it happens out of no where. She is currently taking 4000mg of Keppra daily and I feel that it isn't working since we can never get to the 6 month mark of being seizure free. She's 18 now, her senior year in high school and feels like she has lost her freedom. When she does have a seizure, its either she has a grand mal or she passes out.
Same happens to me, every 4-5 months I have a grand mal seizure after waking up, usually around 30 minutes after, after having it I cry and cannot stand, I lose balance and feel I am dying
