Hello! I'm new here and just wanted some insight. I had a seizure that I was hospitalized for on march 31st (grand mal maybe?) and then another small one three days later. Both nocturnal. I'm finally on a medicine that doesn't give me crazy side effects or that I'm allergic to and going well. Throughout all this medicine changes I haven't had a seizure since that second one. I'm currently on 600 mg of time release trileptal (600mg before I go to bed). Although I haven't had a vivid seizure, since it's nocturnal I don't know if there are subliminal seizures going on that I don't know about. I sleep with my fiancé and he says nothing that he's witnessed. All my tests came back good except my EEG that showed two little spikes once in it. I go for a 24hour EEG next month. Anyway, I'm 22 years old and starting law school in the fall and am wondering two things!
1) any words of advice on getting off medication in 2 years as long as I don't have a seizure in those two years?
2) anyone here have solely nocturnal seizures that I can maybe talk to and get some advice. The doctors I've seen don't know a whole lot about them and are a bit unexplainable a lot of the times.
