My name is Stephen but I go by "60sman". I am 75 and currently under a lot of stress because I decided to pull up 40-year old roots and move to the SF, CA area in search of an environment more tolerable to asthmatics.
I have -- Wait, I really don't know what I have. Original diagnosis was Myoclonic Epilepsy. The first neurologist did not even tell me that it was very, very unusual to first show these seizure-type symptoms at my age. Now, my new Neurologist just shakes her head and says "your case is very unusual" but since you seem to be doing OK on Keppra, we will keep you on it until you develop a more recognizable disorder like one of those Keppra-side-effects. Then, we can cure that by discontinuing the Keppra, right? (LOL)
I would appreciate hearing from any of you out there who have any special insights into the condition my condition is in (I assume you all can read the summary of my seizure activities that I had to post to join.
Thanks
