Default How will my thinking be affected?

This past year I started developing some very strange headaches and have had two seizures. During the headaches I will experience strange thoughts and changes in affect. I have had EEG on 3 separate occasions and nothing has been found. My neuropsychiatrist suspects tle/fle and so far, both of my seizures this past year have been very FLE in nature - limbs flailing about and everything.

So far I've gotten psycho on most of the anticonvulsants they've given me - Lamictal, Trileptal, Lyrica, Benzodiazapines, Topemax...Should I even be on an anticonvulsant if I've only had two seizures?

My concern is that I have TLE and that somehow my thinking is affected. Does anyone here have temporal lobe epilepsy and what are the differences in your thinking on and off medication?
