I have heard of Keppra keeping larger seizures at bay but smaller seizures are still able to stick around.
I am currently without a regular neurologist (the fourth one divorced me as a patient) and only an epileptologist who has a new nurse who has yet to call me back after 3 phonecalls. It's difficult here to get to even see an epileptologist so I can't fish around for a new one...plus I think I do trust him. He's just busy.
I still have daily partial seizures and they cluster around my cycle but the past two days my warnings have been quite non-existant. I have them standing up now, and even sitting without falling.
They are still consistent to the left side of my body and mainly the right side of my face (eyes rolling and flickering yada yada yada) but my lip smacking has increased and my left hand can get stuck in a movement.
I scratched the heck out of my chest when I started scratching myself during a seizure and couldn't stop. The drool is fun too. Or are the spit bubbles better? Hmm. Tough choice.
I also ended up playing with the latch on a cage at work (vet clinic) and it was hurting as the metal was repeatedly grazing the flesh on my finger.
So I am aware.
Afterwards I have to lie down and I'm shaky and my normal post ictal.
Simple partials. Party time. I have to laugh at myself. I think I'm obsessing.
Ack. Who knows. Just putting it out there. Sorry for the excessive details.
