Hi Folks,

I just wanted to update you on the vimpat starting today my Epi is going to increase my vimpat 100 mg. because just like you Tiger Lilly I've been having more sz. I'm a little concerned because I read that vimpat can increase sz. for some people. I will give it a try going from 100 mg. to 200 mg. a day and see if that works if not my next option is to try the atkins diet if my health ins. company will approve it right now they are only covering to see a dietician if a person is a diabetic. The Epilepsy Center I go to is sending the ins. co. info. about the diet along with a note from the Dr. stating this may be the only way to go now. Here's wishing all of You well and May God Bless You!

Sue
