Hi Cejay,
Welcome to the forum! Stress is the number one thing that can trigger seizures for a person along with lack of sleep and hormone changes.
If I may ask does anyone in your family have epilepsy? If they do this could be a genetic thing that is triggering seizures for you.
Often a person can have tests done to find out what's triggering the seizures and the tests won't show any problems and that's because brain damage is deep in the brain. I was on keppra for a yr. to help control my seizures and it increased them but everyone is different. Tell your Dr. to do an DNA test on you and they will be able to find what AED's (seizure med) will help you the most with the least side effects. Also read my first post and follow through with that it will help you out a lot. Here's wishing you only the best of luck and May God Bless You!
