Should I call my doctor?
Sun, 01/04/2015 - 17:47I have been taking Valproic Acid for about 4 months now and I have been seizure free for almost 4 months.
But the problem is I am getting ulcers in my mouth. I have had no other issues with the medication other than that. My parents are seeing if it's something else. The winter season where I live has been sort of odd this year and my mom thinks it's that. I see my doctor in 2 months. My mom said try to see it through; I was wondering could I possibly get a blood test to see if I'm allergic?
The nice this I have been seizure free. Sometimes, they will go away but then return. I have been stressed the last couple of months and exam time is coming up which is no help either :( We started the new semester on Feburary 2nd; should I wait and see if anything else happens??? Maybe has it been from all the stress the last couple months.
