My neurologist has put me on Keppra, gradually starting out I am currently at 750mg twice a day, going to 1000mg next week, then start backing my dilantin down gradually. Have not had a seizure since 1992, I am kinda nervous, had a EEG and it showed seizure activity. Don't want to mess with a seizure since it has been so long. But i am trying to trust my neurologist since he knows what to do. I have quit drinking and will not do so again, as this could cause a seizure. Has anyone ever been in the same situation as me? Also can anyone tell me what side affects they are having or have had with Keppra? Seem kinda irratable at times, that went away after I quit drinking but now seems to be back. I do not want to do that to my family again. I have been getting along with my wife the best we have in 5years and am worried about the Keppra turning me into "that guy" again. Maybe I'm being paranoid.
