hello I had a brain injury 36 yrs ago and clonic-tonic seizures 20 yrs after. Maybe the different meds I've taken have caused osteoporosis? Lamictal and Topamax are the ninth and the tenth med combo I've been on for right temporal lobe traumatic epilepsy with the Topamax for the migraines too. There are several compression fractures right now, some chronic, maybe from muscle contractions from the status elepticus I get now? has anyone else had this? thanks
