My pancreas stopped working. I take Vimpat Phenobarbital Felbamate and Diamox.
Non of the meds control my seizures 100%. My Epileptologist called it Refractory Epilepsy ( my meds don’t work 100% with me ) . You could even find and Research it on The Internet.
Anyone taking Diamox (Acetazolamide) and Keppra (Levetiracetam) together?
I’m taking 500mg of Diamox for mild-high intracranial pressure (oddly helps seizure activity).
Also taking 500mg of Keppra for complex partial epilepsy (don’t loose consciousness).

I've been on it for years and my seizures keep getting worse. Now I'm having multiple forms of seizures instead of just tonic clinic like I had originally. And Dr keeps upping my dosage instead of switching meds even though I've requested it repeatedly. I sought out a different Dr and the new one kept me on same med (zonisimide) and dosages and seizures keep getting more frequent and worse and are now coming in clusters that sometimes last for a week!. Only thing nee Dr did was add Nayzilam… read more
Please note how both Drs agreed on same meds. Just cause you think you know better doesn't mean you're right. Dr's not listening to you because they do know better. No doctor allows a patient to… read more
