Dear everyone, and thankyou for reading my posts and replying.


Went to the dr and finally told how I have really been feeling. Which is kinda toxic within myself. I have been diagnosed with temporal lobe epilepsy for just over 1 year now.

I have been on tegretol ( cabramazapine ) and I was upped recently to 800mg. I felt so sick, sicker then usual, have had swollen ankels, rashes on my stomach, arms, and side or my face going into my ears.

I have also been on epilim ( sodium valproate ) 2000mg daily as a combination with the tegretol, the epilim has made me gain weight 15kgs, to be exact, along with that I have felt so paranoid, like someone's going to get me, and I just never knew if its my medication or the temporal lobe epilepsy.

Severe paranoia.. That everyone is talking about me beghind my back, whispering about me bad things. That they are going to get me my best friends, so I distansted myself from everyone, became violent.

Did what I knew that I couldnt resented the fact that I have this thing got down so depressed, drank alcohol, took it out on my partner, resulted on me being kicked out of home.

Been 5 weeks now told the dr everything no more lies, so scared of what the dr would say to me. Ive had so much aggression.

Now being switched to keppra.
That I am told has a side effect of weight loss, and I am over the moon
