Hi Michelle,

I'm sorry to hear that your sz. have increased. I'm no neuro
but I know when I was taking keppra my sz. increased and just like you
I began having myoclonic sz. which I never had before. My Epileptologist
took me off the kepppra and put me on vimpat and the myoclonic and
complex partial sz. stopped but I still have absence and simple partial sz.
I have been told that heart problems can trigger sz. You might want to
see a heart specialist if you haven't yet. When a person gets pain in their shoulder or arm that's a sign of heart problems which can lead to more sz.
I know this because I have family that have had heart problems and it led to
other medical problems. Try taking vitamin B12 1000 mcg. once a day to see if that helps reduce your sz. and as I mentioned see a heart specialist immediately. I wish you only the best of luck and May God Bless You!

Sue
