From good to bad. Or in my case another person that is anger and barks. I have been taking kapppra 750 mg twice a day. But, after a year in adjust to my body and blood. Once the blood Turned all black. 2 weeks later I had one. My concusion is mine is cause my sodium rich foods is what makes mine attack react. I am out of my meds since dec. 21, 2014.

If you go to the medication

If you go to the medication section here or on your search engin you will find many posts about keppra and in most of those you will see many people refering to it as Kep RAGE. Yes it can and has changed the way a person looks and thinks about issues. As far as your thnking unless you are a doctor you are just thinking it might be your blood. All a seizure is is an electrical impulse going off wrong in your brain, The wrong impulse causes a chain reaction (the seizure) and once the chain reactions stops your seizure is over.  In your next visit you might ask the doctor about this issue
