So, I am in Alabama at a hotel celebrating New Years with my family, and I have something else to celebrate..
I had no trouble with my seizures on my cruise! It was a miracle. And we think we have found the solution to my biggest seizure trigger (lack of sleep.) Sonata.
I have been on Sonata for a week, and I already feel completely different. I only have to take 5 mg at night, and it has been working so well for me. I fall asleep soon after taking it, and have no hang over or bad side effects from it.
It really does feel like a miracle to get a full nights sleep after only sleeping two-three hours a night for so long. Also, I know that I'm much less likely to have seizures now that I am getting good sleep. I just feel so much better.
I get back home to Indiana tomorrow, and will be calling my neurologist the day after, to talk to her, and I think she's going to start gradually raising my Topamax now that I'm home.
Anyway, I just wanted to update you all, and let you know we had a safe, and seizure-free trip. We still have about a six hour drive tomorrow, but I'm sure it'll go smoothly.
Thanks for all the support and I hope you all have a super fun and safe New Years!
