Hello Everybody. I Have A Question We Know Pain Is A Trigger For Me And I Have A Bad Back I Take Methadone For Pain.

I am wondering if anybody has noticed their seizures getting worse or happening more or more intense with methadone? I'm on it for pain because I have a bad back and I have neuropathy and a bad knee. My husband googled methadone and it says people with epilepsy should not be taking it and that it could cause seizures. I take a low dose I take 5 mg three times a day I also take meloxicam which is mobic one time a day and flexeril three times a day.

I have God's grace and the ocean and beach plus Bob Marley today is the second anniversary of my wife's passing away I'm sitting on the beach looking at the ocean listening to Jimmy Buffett drinking her favorite drink a hurricane with a friend that I've known since fifth grade. I am not sure if that is appropriate to say but it's the truth.

It depends on what else you may be taking with your seizure meds. There might be a conflict.
