Seizure increase
At last update had been put on Lamictal, because of five seizures in a row.(past Mon.) Up until this time was having occasional episodes. At school on Fri. had aura, went to the nurses office. She was talking with me then said she knew I was starting to have seizure. Ended up calling 911. Had five seizures again, about ten mins. apart lasting about 1-2 mins. These are different then other seizures had been having. Hands become locked into position, arms stiff, jerking, and legs stiff and jerking. Head also seems to go to right side. Very nauseous during one episode, turned on side.
Meds now are as follows: Phenytek(dilantin) 300mg at once, Lamictal slowly going up to 100mg,Keppra 500mg 2x daily, added Ativan when feel an episode coming on. Klonopin to make me sleep. Will ween me off Keppra.
Dr. will try and move app. at Dartmoth-Hitchcock if possible.
Feel like i am on a merry-go-round.
