Hi there,

Ive been experiencing a severe headache now for over a week, soreness behind the eyes and the back and front of my head. Sometime when i touch my forehead it hurts. Im falling a sleep at any oppertunity.

I have been having treatment for two years now, taking Lamotrigine and Keppra.

What do you think?

Hi Seri,

Welcome to CWE.

Have you had a sleep study?

Are the meds. you are taking for headaches only?
 
Hi seri-- go ahead and contact your doctor. Extreme fatigue and a week-long headache is worth getting checked out. It could be connected to your seizures and/or meds, or it could be something unrelated (like a sinus infection). Either way, your doc should be of help.
 
Do you think or know if you are having seizures? Usually after a seizure I'll have a horrible headache that will last for hours and I'll be very tired. I'll even sleep alot the day after the seizure.

As everyone else said, let your dr know what's going on.
