Hey Gang!

I cant remember if I've told you all this:
My new neurologist has changed my dose on both my meds:

Keppra gen: 1000mg 2x daily
Topamax gen: 50mg 2x daily

still ahving some seizures not as often so this is good!
less than before so i'm happy.

My neurologist is running test to see what else is going on and to see if I have possible MS, since I've been have a lot new symptoms and everything is coming back clear, so have to get more test run again but I'm up for it havent given up yet not going to start now.
you guys here have helped me not give up.

Thanks,

Mike

Keep your head up! Things will work out in the end, it's just a matter of keeping a good perspective towards things until you reach the end of that road
Have you had less numbness with the topamox reduction?

Thank you Nakamova!

I had a not fun seizure this AM with more than normal urination, but they are fewer than normal so this is still going in a good direction!
