Need some help

I just need some advice. I just moved to montana and am ten hours away from my parents. Lately I have been getting these jerks in my arm. THey seem to start in my head and down my neck. It feels like a shock. a really painful shock. I am on 450 mg. of trileptal twice a day. I dont know what i should do. I normally have grand mal seizures but have not had one for four months. I also have these really dark circles under my eyes lately. I dont know what is going on. I could just really use some explaination or some advice. Thank you

Have you talked with a doctor? I think thats what you should do. I wish I knew more to tell you but I really don't. I have have pains like that some times and the whole side of my body will get numb. Good luck to you, sweetie.
