I finished my first box of Keppra today, not sure how I feel about that. :ponder:

Had my first appointment with a new family doctor, he did put me on 4 weeks work leave. Not sure about that either.:brain:

He seemed surprised that I did not take some time off after the second TC. It was a Friday, I did have the weekend... Workaholic sign?:ponder:

He was nice, he is pulling my all my tests results from the hospital, he seemed surprised that I did not have been told results of my blood tests. But again, when I was in the waiting room he did seem to be asking after almost each patient if their exam results were back. He must have been working in an hospital before and is not used yet to not have results quickly.

I talked with him about B6 supplement, he saw no harm in it. He said it might make me have nicer dream. I think he had read:

So I got my 100mg B6 pills with the new bottle of Keppra and took both together at my usual time .

Bernard you had a link about B6 that I can not find any more. Do you have any indication about dosages? The pharmacist was of no help on it.

Hey! from what I read I will have out of the body experiences if I take too much :roflmao: , that would make me feel like I had long hairs again...

Have a great time, tomorrow I will have to decide if I go along with the 4 weeks or not, it might impact badly things at work. hummph.
 
Nah...it's not a sign of being a workaholic. :) When /if I have a tonic clonic, I'm usually at work the next day. :)

I had my second tonic clonic getting ready to go a large gathering with friends and family for easter... on the way there we stopped at the medi clinic to get a prescription (I wasn't on anything because my first prescription was dilatin and I quit it after 2 weeks). Then I spent the weekend writing a paper for a class.

I now know that was a little bit nuts. Next time I may take a nap and a few days to think about what happened and why.

*chuckle* I guess that makes me the workaholic then. :) I usually only take about a 20 minute nap after a seizure, then it's back to doing whatever needs doing....laundry, cooking, house cleaning , etc. If my seizures happen at night, I'm at work the next day.
