Enjoyed your vid on Kepra Please do a similar vid on Lamotrigine. A Neurosurgeon put me on Kepra and sent me to a Neurologist who does nothing but Epilepsy and other seizure disorders. He put me on Lamotrigine in addition to the Kepra. But I have Clinical Depression and Anxiety Disorder and I would fly into fits of anger. Very unlike me. He immediately took me off Kepra. He said he isn’t crazy about it to begin with. Now I’m on Lamotrigine 200mg twice daily and things are well under control. My Epilepsy is Temporal Lobe.

I was put on lepta, by a doctor here in the uk, he just looked in a book and said that will do, he didn’t even refer me to a neurologist first, even when I asked to see one, he said there was no need, kepra made me suicidal for 7 years, I then moved to a different area in the uk, and the neurologist I saw couldn’t believe I was was never taken off it, and that I was even still living, I now take epilin volporate, which works, to some extent, but suffer, extreme drepression, stress and also anxiety too, am now waiting to see another neurologist again, thank for your videos, I would appreciate your feed back, on what may help more 👍

I have corresponded with you about my son. Now I am in need of your thoughts about me. I have never had a seizure until two days ago. I was actually in my daughters hospital room when it happened. It was tonic clonic, and I required cpr. A brain mri and 20 min eeg was done. INTERPRETATION: This is an abnormal EEG due to the presence of rare right temporal-parietal sharp waves. CLINICAL CORRELATION: Focal epileptiform abnormalities are indicative of an area of focal cortical irritability that may increase risk for focal onset seizures. I have PTSD, Depression, Anxiety yet the er still wanted me to take Keppra. I can not take Lamotrigine due to SJS. What would be your next choice medication.
@DrOmarDanoun
@DrOmarDanoun Жыл бұрын
So sorry to hear that... Correct, Keppra is detrimental in depression and anxiety and should be avoided. There are 31 medications for epilepsy. The best one to choose is the neurologist who will evaluate your case and give you a medicine that best fits your needs. I can't provide medical advice online unfortunately. Please review the videos on antiseizure medications and best antiseizure medication for epilepsy they have good information about how to choose

Hello Doctor Omar. I have nocturnal seizures. I wake up between 3-4 AM at night go to the toilet, come back to bed and start shaking. I was prescribed Lamictal 100-100-200 and Temesta (Lorazepam) to take it before seizure. The fact is that I am not always sure when I will be having a seizure because sometimes I just fall back to sleep and everything goes normal. I pop a pill of Temesta after my first uncontrolled arm movement but that sometimes is too late. I was wondering since I only have these seizures at night wouldn't be okay to take a combination of Lamictal and Sleeping pills to help me sleep over the night? I know that my triggers are stress, alcohol, and lack of sleep but let's face it, even if skipped alcohol stress and sleepless nights are almost impossible to take out of a man's life who is working or occasionally stays up late to watch a movie. Would you also recommend a surgery for my condiction? (I have so many questions and unfortunately for me your are a busy man, I am from Europe and you are in USA) I would be very happy if you would find 1 minute to answer me. Have a nice day.

The neurologist didnt even turn up for my first 2 appointments...when he finally turned up for the 3rd booking he said i had functional seizures due to PTSD....???? That was it..no tests no nothing... Im 57 and for 4 years been having these seizures.... All ive been offered is Lorazepam...a medication that is going to dumb my whole body down....or codein????? The NZ medical system has ridiculed me for the entire 4 years and still to this day i have no help... Ive lost everything due to my sezisures..my home, job, car, friends, family and i sit alone day after day dealing with my seizures alone.....
