Hey guys... I've been ramping up to a total dose of 300mg of Vimpat a day (in addition to 800mg of Tegretol and 1,250 of Depakote). Today is the first day of the max dose (of Vimpat) and I took the 150mg this morning and I'm feeling awful. The only way I can kind of explain what it feels like is that it's like I'm on a roller coaster and I can feel the G-forces pushing me down. I feel super dizzy and sometimes almost fall down when I'm walking. Any movement of my head, arms, or legs makes me feel like someone is pushing down on them with their hands. I didn't know if anyone else felt similar (I know everyone's side effects are different and whatnot) or if it got better with time. I'm just sort of trying to deal with it until I see my neuro on Thursday. Any advice on anything that might make it feel better? :/
