We are having some seizure control with Keppra right now. Adam has gone from 4-5 30/45 sec. major motor seizures a day to maybe 1 every other day. His threshold is definately different and we can "divert" him from having a major seizure more easily.

He is on 2 ml/3 times a day, which is 200 mg / 3 times a day...we are having Adam's levels checked soon and may even raise that dosage some.

Our Neuro. is very realistic and knows we may never get total control, he has actually said that will probably never happen. I asked him about the body building up a tolerence against an AED and he says that yes, that does happen.

Seizures SUCK!
