BecE,
I have had epilepsy for about 40 years. During childhood I never was really good with all the medicines. Then about eight years ago a neuro started me on Tegretol, well that didn't work because I started seeing about five things at the same time going in circles. My neuro quicky drew me off and started me on Keppra (which he is reducing slowing) and Lamital. I haved had rashes or really any other sym.
About five years ago I did have a VNS implanted and it has help me. It is not a cure but it has help me. There is a large number of people it does help, though. My spells are shorter, and I am not sleepy.
I guess I better quite running my fingers off. My prayers are with you.
Darlene
