I totally forgot to add what I'm taking, lol. I'm on Tripetal, 1500mg a day, and my doctor is taking me off of Zonegran and replacing it with Vimpat, said this was something new over here in the USA this year. The Zonegran I take 400 mg right before bed, 4 pills. I had a grand mal seizure about a month ago and my doctor changed my zongran from 3 pills to 4 pills and I saw a change. I'm slowly will come of the zonegran as I go on the vimpat. I'm on my first week starter kit, 50 mg. Today is my 3rd day on it, and I shouldn't have read the side effects because I feel like I'm experiencing some, being dizzy. I was told by my daughter I was pairnod,:ponder:
 
Well I think it finally happened. I was at Costco and somebody got in my way and I almost lost it. I had to walk away and my wife had to calm me down. I felt my blood just a boiling. I had to take a few deep breaths but I finally calmed down.

I do not know if this was caused by the keppra or I was just having a bad day but we had a bit of a snack and I felt quite a lot better.

If any one had any episodes please let me know and how you handled it.

Thanks

Jackson
 
I think I had been on Keppra about a month when I went thru my "I'm going to kick your ass" period. Everything got to me and I would just say to myself " I am going to kick somebody's ass". Luckily I never did and got thur that period...it was like 2 weeks and then I quit having that. That's when I learned about Kepprage!!
 
I have almost gotten in a fight at a little ceasars pizza place twice lol! it was indeed the Keppra
