Hi guys,
I'm not on any medication at the moment for my tonic clonic and grand mal seizures.
I'm wanting to speak to my Dr about maybe starting Topomax.
Has anyone been on it? Any side effects? Does it help stop seizures?
Did you take topomax in conjunction with other seizure meds or on it's own?
Thanks heaps.
I hope you have a blessed Christmas holiday also @A MyEpilepsyTeam Member
I think that I am, i know that there is not a cure for, but I I've accepted mine and it does make it easier knowing what I have to deal with, what do you think and your thoughts about it?
Learned to live with it. It's great to hear this is being treated just like anything else in life from birth. LEARNED TO LIVE WITH NOT CONTROLLED TO LIVE WITH!

I have epilepsy and my son is currently doing a college project to promote epilepsy awareness, remove the stigma of it. He needs an epilepsy medical expert & advocate to contact in the next day or two to answer @ 4 questions for it. He would only need 1 - 2 sentence answers. Any help is appreciated.

I agree
Anyone on this Anticonvulsant. I'm in UK might be called something different over in US. My son has just reached his last increase. 3 seizures last week during exercise, 2 of them anyway.
Those with epilepsy that had children what was your experience like? Did you have to be off your meds? Was it scary? I know I still have lots of time to worry and decide if I even want a family and Ik I can have the conversation with my doctor when the time comes but share your stories
I've had epilepsy since 5yo, I have many, many friends who have epilepsy & have gone on to parents & grandparents. Several had concerns at first, but they didn't have any problems & they tell me⦠read more
That's right VeraBaker! Those that pray together stay together. When you put your trust in the Lord, all things work out for a married couple one way or another.
This helps tremendously.
