When I see my epileptologist I'm going to tell her to start me on vimpat. I have 3 friends that have started it, and they've been seizure free for over a year. the 3 of them haven't had any problems with the side affects. All I know about it is it's a med started in Europe, and then the USA decided to give it a try. I'm also on tegretolXR, and I hate that one. I ALWAYS get bad stomach cramps that say I'm about to poop, and I always have the runs for so many years I have the roids now.
Sincerely
Shawn

I've had horrible headaches since my surgeries and now my mom who believes she's a doctor tells me that this medicine is what's causing my headaches and I should stop it.  NO, I didn't listen to her just wondering if anyone else has any info to share about Vimpat?? Hope all of you are doing wonderful!  |
