Hi,
I'm new to this site. Its quite exciting to know there is a forum to answer any queries people might have.
A bit of background: I was diagnosed with Juvenile Mychlonic Epilepsy around 1992. I have been taking Epilim since then, but slowly have had my dosage reduced over the years and I am currently on 200mg per day.
My quesiton is: I am looking to start a family in the near future and my neurologist has advised me to go off the Epilim while I try to get pregnant and during the first trimester. Has anyone else, with the same condition as me, gone off epilim? Did you experience any seizures?
Thanks
