I've not been diagnosed with seizures, but mobile EEG showed definite abnormal brain waves in the frontal lobes of my brain. I've been losing memory for a couple of years without taking meds...other than a daily a Centrum Silver. Short term incidents are not getting into long term memory.

Started on Mirtazapine for stress/depression and could notice no effect at all. Took myself off of it two months ago. One week on Dilantin and will get a blood test today. Hoping that it shows too much in me as I'm suffering from vertigo, dizzyness and jittery...even as I type. Plus, I seem to plod along instead of a normal walk. Can't do this for the rest of my life.

Can anyone offer help...like being able to get by on less meds? Less strong meds? Thanks, John
