Keppra and pain or swelling in joints?

Wed, 05/13/2009 - 15:20

Topic: Medication Issues

Hi,

I started to take Keppra (50mg twice a day) for a few months. I have taken Dilantin and have a VNS for many years now. After I started to take Keppra all was great at first. Well, now my joints are starting to be very painful. Just to close my hand to make a fist is becoming more painful. Never had this problem before I started Keppra. This is why I am questioning the Keppra.

Is anyone else have this type of problem with like this?

Thanks for any info you may have on this. no alleykat

I Knee and hip pain and it

I Knee and hip pain and it has orthofeet shoes that I have no pain with them. In fact, this is the only shoe. I was worried about buying these online because I couldn't try them on first, but the customer service chat helped me narrow down the style I was looking for - knee pain and joint instability. They feel great and I'll be looking for one of the pairs of dressy shoes soon! I really wear. I work, exercise and take long walks in them. If you have any foot issue, try them. I highly recommend Orthofeet.
