Alcohol & Keppra

Sun, 03/19/2017 - 10:01
Hello again. In my first posting i mentioned that i believed my grand mal seizures were primarily caused by my Nero subjecting me to the LED strobes. I had absolutely 0 seizures until that day and have a VERY active life style. My grand mals had plenty of time to show it's ugly face then, now i have 2 seizures a month and all are right before my 4am or 4pm dosage. My alcohol consumption NEVER brought on a seizure in all thoes years, but now I'm told the Keppra I'm taking can induce seizures if taken while consuming alcohol! See my confusion in this theory? If alcohol never played a role in my before, not ageisting seizures, why now? This question even has my Nero stuttering!
