Behavior issues and epilepsy

Hi

My 8 year old daughter has Epilepsy, she has had it since 8 mths old, managable for several years by epilum. They were short seizures, during the day, anytime. When she turned 8, they changed to Nocturnal seizures. Only during sleep and i am yet to find a medicine to stop these seizures. She has tried topamax, trileptal and now we are trying Keppra. I just wish we could find a medicine that would control the seizures. My other main issue is Behavior problems, is anyone else having the same problems. The neurologist said this type of epilepsy is called autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilesy (ADNFLE).
Is there anyone out there that can compare stories with me

Cheers

Cam

My 11 year old son has been on keppra since being dx with benign rolandic epilepsy at age 8. He only has nocturnal seizures as well. He takes Trader Joes brand all natural vitamin B 100. Helps with the mood. He also takes Nordic Naturals 3-6-9 fish oil. email me at curtis.wybourn@us.qbe.com if you have any other questions.
