Hi,
I've just joined this site today.
The forums are extremly helpful, and its so nice to learn there's great advice out there.
My experiences with my neuro haven't been very successful,as I usually get "I never heard of that before" when I begin to describe an experience to him.
Thankfully I've located a new neuro in Yale,CT that I 'll visit at the end of the month,
I had my first seizure back in August 2002,then the second in December of the same year.They were both grandmals.I was put on tegretol 800mg a day,which kept me seizure free untill april 2005,when i suffered another g.m. I then switched to 1,200mg trileptal per day.It did the trick up untill October the same year, where this time I just fainted, and jerked a little.It wasn't a full blown seizure like the previous ones. I currently take 1,800 trileptal, and I don't feel 100% safe on it.I feel sometimes a similar sensation that comes over me, prior to the other seizures.Then other weeks,I'm perfectly fine.I got my blood work done recently, and the med levels are stable and "normal".
Its great to be here everyone, thanks for listening..
Markus
