I had huge problems with weight gain and Depakote. I counted calories and worked out and still was gaining weight. My doctor switched me to Zonisamide. With that I had terrible depression. It amazes me how I made it through that time. I then went to Keppra and felt better than I have in years. The only problem is it didn't work and had regular breakout seizures. I am now on Lamictal. I am very scared about how it will work. I realize I'm going to have to just deal with side effects at some point.
