Well I finally saw my neuro 2 days ago, I haven't seen one in over a year. He saw my weight loss, as ive lost ALOT more weight since oct. He put me on vimpat at a low dose to try and decrease the side affects and then in 2 weeks once im up to a more therapeutic level of the vimpat, then im going to go off the Depakote. He's hoping the vimpat will be enough to cover all the szs. If not im to call him back in a month and let him know. The only side affects im having with the vimpat is feeling foggy and tired, but that's normal for me when starting any new AED. Here's to hoping this works!
