Well it just seems like everytime I have the aura... I am pist off or overwhelmed with something going on then I have a seizure. I hate to be on meds and I know there is always gonna be a side effect with something. But it seemed like everything was going well and I just started the keppra with the carbortrol and that day I could feel the steam coming out of my ears. Then I had a sezuire. I just didnt know if anybody else out there had stress related episodes. Thanks for getting back to me...and I am glad I found this forum its so hard to communicate with people who really have no idea sometimes what you go through.

Yes i have stress induced seizures. My kids thought it would be funny to make a big bang noise upstairs then yell that my 6 year old got hurt and was bleeding. They put Saran wrap over the door area so I would run into it and they would video it. Hahaha not funny! Even though I am used to accidents ( I work in surgery) I panicked and couldn't breath then had a seizure. My ears also got really hot right before.

Keppra with nortriptyline. I used to take topomax too but it was making my hair fall out and I had seizures all the time. So I have been off topomax now for about a week.
