Ive been doing
Trileptal 500mg and Keppra 1000mg in the morning
and
Trileptal 500mg and Keppra 1500mg at night
My last neurologist visit I was told that I should change my treatment as Ive been on this for about 4-5 years or so.
The main reason Im scared to change is because minimum to work I have to drive 90 km (56 miles) daily combined to/from work. Obviously driving 160 kmph (100 mph) changing medications scares me.
The reason she recommended to change is because I do suffer a lot of side effects. Most I have grown acostume to:
Suicide thoughts
Fatigue*
Tiredness*
Headaches*
Migraines*
Lack of motivation to do anything*
Mood swings
Dizziness*
Drowsiness*
Concentration problems!
Mental sluggishness!
"*" are problems I encounter nowadays and "!" are critical to my work as I am a programmer.
I want to know if anyone has switched from these medication to another with more or less success. Its obvious that EVERYONE is different but I was wondering about some experiences. She, of course, says that I will be OK but my Trileptal/Keppra combination dosage was risen a few times before my epilepsy was completely controlled without having attacks.
Thank you all
