Hi I have just had a fit in my sleep and woke up in the morning totaly unaware and confused , tempory memory loss , and been sick in stomach vile.
I have been having these fits once a week the doctor has prescribed me with epilim. Is this causing me to be sick , could this be a side effect of the drug.

I had my first fit a grand mal three months ago which left me unconcious needing hospital treatment. Since then all my fits have been in my sleep with being sick.

What can I do to stop this as I am really cocerned what to do whether to stop taking the epilem or is this a normal reaction. This message I posted for my sister whom I am very worried about can any-one offer me advice.
