Simple seizures in clusters

Sun, 06/26/2016 - 15:21
Hey All. I was diagnosed with temporal lobe epilepsy after I started having tonic clonic seizures two years ago, since then I've been put on lamotrigine (150mg in the day, 50mg at night) the grand mals have stopped but I still experience ALOT of simple partial seizures, like clusters at a time, every 10-5 mins I'll get a wave of anxiety, butterflies, dizziness, confusion, etc....everyday, especially in the morning and evening. Makes me feel like I'm losing my mind some days. Does anyone else get this? Is this normal? I've told my doctor more than once but he doesn't ever seem too concerned.
