:banana: Hi everyone im new to this and decided to join after visiting my epilepsy nurse today, i think i need help although i have epilesy since i was 13 years old i have been on different medications throughout, i am currently on keppra and epilim, after seeing the nurse today she has decided that she is worried about my weight since starting on the epilim i have gained weight and from what she says dont stand a great chance of losing it whilst on the drugs! her options for me were these i come off the epilim and start taking clonazepam and topiramate which she says will help with the weight issue but i read through other side affects of the topiramate and wasnt quite sure. Has anyone else been on this? and what do you think?. Sorry to dive straight in with a question just right now i dont know what to do for the best and from tomorrow i am supposed to start coming off the epilim thanku in advance xxx
