I have JME and I was just put on 2000mg of levetiracetam a day and I'm the exact same way. I'm tired all the time, and I sleep a lot. I wouldn't exactly call them memory problems but sometimes when I am in the middle of talking to someone I forget what I was about to tell them, or if I'm telling a story I'll forget how it ends for a few minutes before I remember. It is normal to be tired and have memory issues, but it's still something to tell your Neurologist. Even if it's a normal symptom of the meds you take, you should keep your doc updated on everything. You're not alone buddy :)
