What type of seizures do you have? Mine are complex partial.

Sounds like pill number one is controlling problem #1, but has side affects causing problem #2 etc etc etc. Why are you taking 21 pills/day. Could all those CHEMICALS be the problem.

They still do
I know they pump me with Dilantin when I go to hospital because I have clusters

I was on pheno as a small child 40+ years ago. Do they still use that one? Dilantin is kind of hard on the body but may work.

Get off of it. I always recommend lamictal, Onfi and phenobarbital. Aptiom made mine worse and thought of suicide as a withdrawal symptom
