Hi, After 14 months of being diagnosed with everything from Syncope to depression to PTSD someone finally witnessed me having a seizure during one of my "blackouts."
I was diagnosed one week ago with Epilepsy and have been on 1,000 MG of Depakote ER daily and it is making me very tired. Is that dosage normal? Seems like a lot for a first timer. I was on 500 Mg for 3 days before going to my present dosage. I've only found this site today and was glad I did because I feel/felt like I ws the only person in the world that was suffering through this crazy condition.
I'm 58 years of age and have been told it's a little late in life for someone to come down with Epilepsy.
Please tell me it's not the end of the world. I've always thought of myself as brave but anymore..............
Thank you,
Mike
