Hi John,

I've had myoclonic sz. with some jerking around but after I started taking Vimpat 300 mg. a day the sz. stopped. I also have absence and complex partial sz. also but they were greatly reduced once I started vimpat. Another thing that has helped that you may want to try is Vitamin B12 1000 mcg. once a day. B12 helps calm a persons nerves and it has greatly reduced my sz. over the yrs.
You may want to ask your Dr. to do a sleep study on you along with an e.e.g. at the same time. I had this done and that's when they found out I was having sz. in my sleep this may be what's causing the problem for you just like when someone has a sleep disorder it can sometimes trigger sz./
I wish you the best of luck and May God Bless You!

Sue
