I have had that happen, feeling like I was starting to become detached from my body, as well as my extremities feeling bigger and balloon-like, even though I know and can see that they aren't. I'm pretty sure it's a side effect of my medication (neurontin, didn't notice it when I was only on lamictal). It happened more when I started it and when I was on a higher dose, but it still happens once in awhile.

Not sure . Maybe it's a side effect from your meds.

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member - I'm on Tegretol and Zonegran. The Tegretol has been a constant since I developed the condition, although the dose has increased over time. Zonegran replaced Keppra (which really didn't agree with me) about a year ago.

What medications are you on because I have been on so many that caused me to feel like my head was. A balloon where my head was removed from my head and I could see myself

I know it's hard without driving . I miss that the most. Now I rely on my mum and dad or my sister during the day but my dad won't be driving much longer!Ive gone eight days now without a seizure where they've been about every four days- don't know if it's the calm before the storm or what?i definately know exactly what you mean about watching a programme- that's what I was like!
