Default Severe & Frequent Seizures

Hi Folks,

I'm not sure what's going on with me except that my sz. have increased to the point where I'm having them almost every day. Last yr. I was put on vimpat and it worked great stopping most of my cp (complex partial) sz. but after seeing my Epi a few weeks ago she wanted me to increase the amount of vimpat I was taking from 200 mg. a day to 400 mg. a day because I had 189 sz. last yr. and she felt that was to many sz.
Since I have increased the vimpat I'm now having clonic sz. where parts of my body will be shaking during the sz. and I hope and pray that they don't lead to tc sz. (grand mal). I also have noticed that I'm having more cp sz. I feel very tired all of the time and I'm sure that has to do with the increase of the vimpat. Thanks for your time and May God Bless You!

Sue
