Hi everyone
I have had epilepsy since I was 14, now 45 (shhh)! I have had many grand mals in my life. The worst time was during my time at uni. I was having some days where I experienced 3 seizures and at least had one a week. I was taking 3000mg epilim and can't remember how much tegretol! Anyway, that obviously wasn't working! I started neurofeedback and low and behold, I reduced my dosage to less than a third of what I was taking and I was in control. No more overdoses! Anyway, had a baby and that went well. After that the doc changed my meds to epilim and lamictal. That was 8 years ago now. I've had hair loss though for the last 2 years at least. It's really thin now. Hoping there may be others with the same so I can fix this problem.
Cheers
Arlene
