Nice to meet you
Hello and welcome to NeuroTalk. I too have had seizures since I was 10. Up until the last few year I never had a doctor that would assist me in my epilepsy. Sue gave you a great deal of information to go by. Back when I would have a spell it would not last long, but sometimes I would lay down and sleep for a small amount of time, but it seem more to me. I too am on Keppra which really has not harm me, but we are all different. My neurologist sent me down to Dallas and I saw an Epileptologist who did some test and ending up have surgery on my brain, removing a scar mass off the left side of my brain. I was the answer for me in all these years. My neurologist is fixing to ease me off my meds, (Keppra & Lamital). Mostly what I had was petit-mal seizures, then I have also had grandmals some. When I was in a spell I could hear others talking to me asking questions and I had the answer, but I had the words formed to soeak to them but could not move my mouth.
My thoughts and prayers are with you. Please keep us updated on the results.
Again welcome, looking forward to seeing you around.
Darlene
