Sooo I have my bi-annual epilepsy review today with my gp. I've been feeling quite anxious about it, probably because I'm not sure Tegretol is working for me at all. This is the third med in as many years that hasn't worked. If anything its increased my seizures and the weight gain side effect is intolerable now. I've managed to lose 1lb since I posted my last topic on weight gain and Tegretol and that's because I've drastically cut down my calorie input.
I'm worried in case my doc or my neuro gets fed up with me because we've not found one that works yet. The Keppra had cut down on tonic clonics but not partials but the Tegretol increased tonic clonics again =\
I'm not sure what else to bring up at my appointment, trying to compile a list but my brain is a big ole fuzzball.
