Memory problems seem to be a problem with epilepsy. This seems to be a common problem. Can be meds or the place in the brain where seizures originate Hope this helps

Dave I don’t have that problem. I have a device that dispenses my doses twice a day when it’s time to take them. It also lets me know when it’s getting low in one of the holders of one of the three that I’m taking. It’ll also give me reminders if I haven’t gotten the dose out of the cup by text saying don’t forget your dose at so and so time that I set it for. It’s a good tool to have .

My memory is slowly becoming a bit more concerning for me. And getting words out is too.

My memory is quite difficult. I find that I have forgotten big chunks of my life. Some comes back, some doesn't. Sometimes if someone tells me I may remember. It's quite frustrating between memory loss and being tired all the time. My first out and out attack/seizure that was recognized as a seizure was 4 or 5 in a row. I remember nothing. It also set off my existing fibromyalgia badly so I have lots if pain and stiffness. I'm learning as I go as to how to deal with it all.

My memory is pretty sketchy, between the epilepsy and the meds I'm not sure which is causing the most problems.
