Why do I keep on having myoclonics sometimes when I'm asleep or just taking a nap? I just want it all to go away.

i get the odd twitch in my arms and legs and i dont know why it just comes out of the blue is it a sign a seizure is coming my medication has recently put to the highest dosage possible could that be why?

I have Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy and was wondering if VNS is an option? If so has this helped you?

Sorry another foody question. Are certain spices good or bad for you? I enjoy Indian and Chinese food but don't want to over do it.

My son was diagnosed with juvenile myclonic epilepsy. He takes Keppra and has had several morning grand mal seizures in the last year. Any stress in the morning causes a seizure even on 2000 mg Keppra. We try to manage his stress and sleep as best as possible. He cannot drive until 6 month seizure free, being 18 yrs old that is very frustrating for him.
How do you manage your lifestyle, medications, diet, etc.

Like I get everything metabolizes quicker with pregnancy especially medications but I've been having some breakthrough seizures on my medications I take 2,000 mg a day and having breakthrough seizures with pregnancy

Does anyone else’s seizures get really bad when their “time of the month” is about to come and is still going on??

I have always worked, now at the age of 47 years old, my epilepsy is totally out of control, and I have had to disclose this to my company (never done this with any company). I'm naturally extremely concerned about finances and the outcome. My company is talking permant incapacity or to be medically boarded.
