I've had them all that you listed. I always have a list with everything I need to ask and tell my nero about right after I get out of my first appointment till the next one about side effects of the seizure medication I've been on and any new ones that appear and what happens if I get on a new kind of medication and If am suggested to get on a new medication I'll ask about it and get the name as I also like to do my own research on it then just agreeing on it. I also put down the time and day with the date on how many sezuires I've had that I know of and my amount of exhaustion due to the 3 meds that am currently on all have that side effect which I take twice daily. And how I've felt with my depression while taking my meds.

Thats one of the big problems for me, it takes me longer to process what a doctor said or asked in my mind, then get my answer from wherever it is in there all jumbled up, by then they already asked a different one so i either didnt hear the new question or they just didnt get my answer. I fully realize this is unfair and 'sounds like i need a better supportive neurologist who understands' thats what im looking for but i feel like i should get double appointment time sometimes just cause it takes me longer. Ik im not the only one but i have to stop being so passive about it.

DID take both VALIUM & DEXEDRINE,
LOST weight on DEXEDRINE~~HATED the way VALIUM made me feel.

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member thats awesome that you get such frequent visits, that would definately solve some of my problems. I am now referred to a neurologist so hopefully i can set this up. @A MyEpilepsyTeam Member i agree to a point, I do know that where i am at my treatment is lifelong. Its treating my symptoms, and managing medications and results of my craniotomy too.
