I am taking part in a musical 4 nights next week. The doctor has prescribed Clonazepam to settle my nerves the night before to avoid seizures. I'm a bit worried about taking it incase I suffer side effects. Has anyone been on it? x

Just to let you all know the show went really well :) full house nearly every night. My seizures behaved and I was able to sleep straight thorough 3 out of the 4 nights. Thinking of suggesting I try this drug on along with my others for a longer period to see if it makes a difference. Hmm we'll see. Hope you're all well, im full of cold now with no voice lol. Oh well it was worth it! x
