My head has been spinning all day. I've been having balance issues and pressure in my ears. Aura? Side effect of the generica Keppra and Lomotrigine?

I had a seizure this morning and have had this feeling ever since

Any thoughts?
 
Pita, I have had this feeling and it is the pits. It is possible it could be an aura because this was one of the feelings I had when I was diagnosed with complex partials. I didn't, however get pressure in my ears. It used to last all day and was accompanied with the feeling of being hungover. Now I am on Tegretol, I don't get this feeling so much. I hope you start to feel better soon.
 
Sorry you're having a rough day. Tomorrow is Friday, so it's gotta be better, right? :rock:
 
ive been like that before. i got so dizzy, i almost passed out. maybe side effect, read the info packet that came with meds. did you eat today? drink enough water? perhaps your tired? Take care of yourself Pita. Talk with your dr if you dont feel any better soon. OK

Hugs and feel better...now! : )

Thanks everyone. I see the neuro psych tomorrow first time since January. I'll take it up with her tomorrow especially if I feel the same tomorrow!
 
I think its an aura personally, Are you having distortions as well? Objects look different to you or seem to be moving Pita, please keep us posted as to what dr says it tomorrow...if that is ok with you. We all will be with you!
 
Been there with Keppra where it gives me days where the dizziness can be insane. The worst is when I walk and have to lean with my shoulder on a wall to stay upright. It is a side effect for me and hopefully for you it is just a side effect (if you can manage and deal with it).
