Default Kepra Questions

We saw the neurologist today. She prescribed Keppra, 750mg/day. Diagnosied her as Complex Partial Seizure and says Keppra has the least side effects of all anti-seizure meds. The potential side effects list with suicidal thoughts, depression, headaches, motor coordination loss, etc is kind of scary. should I talk with a epileptologist before we start the meds? the doc says because of the risk of the seizures getting worse or changing forms (a.k.a.: "kindling") we should do the medication. Conservative measures may help but we should do the medication now . What do you all think??
