i dont do well on the computer, so I hope I find the responses.i have been having seizures since 1971, and just the last 8 years I have been seizure free. I have been on dilantin, phenobarb., mysoline and tegrel.. I gained alot of weight, over 80 lbs. on tegretol. since I was seizure free, I went off the pills, and lost all the weight. when i started taking it again, i started to gain the weight back. I dont know what to do.
My doctor is suggesting keppra. i read some things about it. My health is important, but I am 54, and i felt terrific after I lost the weight. since i gained the weight back, I feel depressed too. I dont know if I am making a big deal about it. I have to take something, and I know it depends on a persons own body.
I just want to get some feed back. Since the tegretol is back in my system, I dont have any energy, and Im feeling depressed, lazy and just different. Am I just making all this up in my head? I dont have any seizures, but I think there are side effects from tegretol
