Keppra and preventing seizures

Wed, 07/26/2017 - 03:17
So i am newly diagnosed with complex partial / secondary generalised and have literally just started taking Keppra Last night i woke and felt 'odd', which has been my pattern and has preceded seizures for me in the past. I anxiously waited for it to start but it never did which left me wondering if this because the AED had prevented it? So my question is, do those on AED's still 'feel' as if they may go into seizure (by getting their aura's or starting feelings) and then never do as the Keppra prevents it actually starting?
