keppra and wierd sensetion in left palm


Heres the deal,when istaretd taking keppra 250mg once daily i felt fine.sometimes my moves seemed a little rapid but nothing special and felt perfect.Then i raised the dosage to 250 twice daily and something changed.Every time i will raise my left arm to scratch my nose or just move the arm i will feel strange sensation,i won't call it electric but like weakness or something can't expalin it,its like it a foreign arm or something.I am righty and not lefty but now its so much more extreme to the point i feel wierd using my arm.tried rasing the dosage but din't work,now lowering back to 250 to see if it will pass.The bad news is that everytime i slept a little a drank alot of alcohol i felt the same feeling but stronger and had myoclonic jerks,now altough i don't really have seizures i feel 24/7 like im about to have it and its annoying,this feeling make me think im going to have a jerk and i still have like movments of the fingers which are not really by will but rarely and its related to this feeling.Any sujjestions or common feelings??

One more thing,i get the urge to scratch my left palm because i feel like its not there altough i can use it to type and do stuff.


Don't know what to do,its the first drug that actually helped and prevented seizures for me
