Im on carbamazepine, and Im not sure if Im just experiencing a side affect. But I feel like I fall a lot by tripping, falling down stairs, losing balance. And things fall out of my hand when I feel like I have a full grasp, im always knocking things over or accidentally hitting my head/body on things, constantly stubbing my toes etc. I have been getting so frustrated and upset lately that its leading to aura seizures again.

A lot of it can be ataxia Too complicated to go into but it's a side effect of many of the medications we take I can trip over anything/ lose grip on things & lose balance easily whilst having to hold onto something.I was on carbemazapine for many years on its own but my seizures aren't controlled & I've noticed this discoordination happens now as I'm on 5 types of tablet I'm 62 Ask your GP of neuro if you're lucky to have one Take care
There are many times when I’m catching the wall or furniture. Then I have times where my head feels heavier than what it normally feels. My balance is off at times and there have been many time when I’m walking around the corner of a building wall and I end up turning too sharp that I run into the corner of the wall instead of clearing my corner turn.
I'm clumsier than I was. I'm a toe banger, I trip on nothing, choke on air, drop things all the time. Spill my drink and have to mop it up at least once a day, I have to be careful turning around, or I will get dizzy. If I close my eyes standing I will sway and fall over (balance test in Dr office).
It's just me.
