Does ANYONE like being on Keppra?

Thu, 09/14/2006 - 16:02
Okay, so I know no one really likes being on any medication, but I am just wondering, does anyone LIKE Keppra? I hate Keppra. I hate the way it makes me feel. I'm always tired and grouchy and fidgety. I can't see straight most of the time and my already short-fuse is way way shorter. Has anyone been on Keppra and NOT had bad side effects? Because for the number of people, it seems like most people I've talked to DON'T like it.

Dear KK's Mom, Thanks for your kind comments, I hope your daughter too find something that works soon. To my neuros horror I've decided to come off all the meds for a while and have a break. I'm off the Keppra and feeling likely the cloud of doom has gone and now coming off the Topomax as it gives me lots of side affects too which I feel are worse than the seizures. Best wishes to you and your daughter. Bex
