Lamictal, JME, tonic-clonic and other fun things

Howdy! I was just reading through some things about Lamictal and such. O.k., so I'm getting that my doc is treating me with 150 mgs of Lamictal 2X/day, (not that that's particularly relevant), because of my JME. I've decided that this might not be the brightest move. I realize that he is treating my myoclonis and not my giganticly amazing break dancing skills, but... My JME is my signal that I'm walking on the wire for a tonic-clonic. One of the last seizures I had, I was in the shower all proud of myself for not jerking hardly at all. My sleep was all screwed up, but I got up in the afternoon - you guys know the sleep story. **my stories drone on and on... you are getting sleepy...** Then I had a big, fatty-fat seizure and really kicked my own ass in the tub. No warning sign. Should I really be treating this? MUST I take another type of medication to control my big ol' seizures as well. I've noticed that I still have the same frequency of major t-c seizures as I do without meds. It's really confusing when I have them now because there's no warning, I don't see myself fall - have no idea that I had one until I feel my tongue or my broken egg shell noggin. **very sleepy now... you must send me large amounts of US dollars... you are still very, very sleepy.** I also want to dabble in a more natural way to control these things. I'm not living alone anymore and I know my limits for sleep. ?? I want to know if you think I should continue Lamictal. I want to know what you think about taking progesterone birth control pills to control my estrogen dependent seizure risk. I want to know if Lamictal is an antidepressant and if it interferes with IUD contraceptive use. ?? I have so many questions - please give me your opinions and any resources you think are relevent for my quest. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!! ** You're waking up 3..2..1 You're wide awake to answer Caboose's question** Caboose.
