Meds and rocking

[CBernieBlack]

Has anyone found themselves rocking a little bit while on medication?
I'm not talking about air guitar in your underwear...although that is awesome...and I'm guilty of that as well. =) :rock:

Third week on Vimpat and boosted up to 100mg and I'm noticing a bit more space out and a little rocking back and forth. Hmmm...think I'll ask the doc if I can hang out at this level for a time. Treatment shouldn't be worse than the condition.

Anyway, hope everyone is well. =)

Thanks!! It's really minor right now. I'm just thinking if I go up to the 200mg the doctor wants, it might get worse. We shall see. ::dramatic music:: Dun-dun-duuuunnnn.

I know the rocking you mean, I am now on 200mg of vimpat and it seems to have stopped although I did notice it once or twice since.

I'm always wiggling a leg up and down really fast. Sort of like I'm tapping my foot but I don't let my heel hit the ground.

I don't know if that could be from one of the meds I'm on or it's just me.

I get that too sometimes and it's unsettling. I'm on Lamictal XR.

They upped my Vimpat when they discharged me, and I have definitely noticed some equilibrium issues--especially in the mornings. The first week, for about 1.5 hours or so after dosing in the AM, I couldn't stand up without holding on to something. They spread out my doses a little more since then, so I'm not that bad anymore, but it still definitely gives me sea legs.
