keppra and lamictal
Tue, 10/11/2005 - 05:50Topic: Medication Issues
Hi bruce
I just read that you are on Keppra and lamictal. My 15 year old son was just put on that combination a few weeks ago. HE was on just lamictal and he was having complex partial everyday. He was on depekote two years prior. I was wondering how that combo is working for ya and how long before you noticed a difference?
MY son is a runner and that seems to trigger his seizures. Recently he ran the race for the cure and one mile into it he started running off course. Thats been happening most of his season. Have you ever heard of running triggering seizures? He has had a few in school this year but mainly when he runs. Its really starting to bumm him out.
Thanks kim
