Do I really have Epilepsy?

I had been having problems since 2009. I felt fatigue, had episodes of brain fog and had an occasional sense of smoke smell. I thought that it was due to poor sleep quality because I never felt rested. I seemed to get the best sleep/rest if I could sleep in to about 8 a.m (I felt like I got better sleep between 4-8 a.m. I went to the doctor and was referred to a sleep specialist. He did a sleep study that only noted minor sleep apnea but noting major (I didn’t really feel like I was able to fall asleep during the study). He then referred me to an ear, nose and throat specialist., who said that he could fix a deviated septum and wanted to remove my uvula to open my airway in an effort to increase quality of sleep. I didn’t get a good feeling about the procedure so I did not proceed. Fast forward to 2015. I was having about a week long episode of smelling smoke, it happened in my office, car and in my home. I was also still having the other problems as weland seemed to happen around 10 a.m. on days that it occurred. I thought the smoke smell was weird so I googled it. I was concerned to see that smelling smoke could be symptom of a brain tumor so I went to my physician who referred me for an MRI. The MRI was normal, but did note 2 “cyst” in the temporal lobe that looked like past trauma. They recommend a re-scan in 3 months, which I did with no change to size or shape was noted. I asked to be referred to a neurologist and was sent to Naval Hospital Bremerton. I relayed my symptoms, and believed I was having seizures. I completed three EEGs, and depending on who read them whether they were normal or showed some activity. I was placed on keppra but was taken off due to anger side effect. I was then placed on lamotrigine starting at 25mg X 2 daily and increased to 150 MG X 2 a day. I feel like I get better sleep on lamotrigine, haven’t had any brain fog episodes or smoke smell problems. However, this medication has brought on a whole new set of problems that seem worse than the initial symptoms. Below is the list of before and after symptoms. Symptoms before medication: Occasional Smoke smell Stuttering/hard to get words out at times Brain fog Headache Hot sweats Symptoms after 7 months on lamotrigine: Memory loss Confusion (increases by stress or lack of sleep) Eye problems (slow focusing/blurred vision) Anxiety Hard to get words out/misspeak order of words or sentences don’t make sense **All are worsening with stress or poor/lack of sleep** Has anyone else experienced similar symptoms, I am not convinced that I have epilepsy?!?!
