So sorry. It took 4 months and 4 doctors before I was diagnosed. I am currently taking Tegretol. A 200 mg. pill 3 times a day (every 8 hours).
I am having an episode now. It has lasted 3 days so far. The medication helps but makes my head feel heavy and I feel incapable of doing some of my daily activities such as driving. I am not employed so I don't have to be concerned about missing work. It is a strange affliction. Do you have a particular question?
