Keppra Problems/Withdrawal

Mon, 09/04/2006 - 11:59
Has anyone had withdrawal problems (not seizures) after coming off of Keppra? NEED HELP!!!! If you have had hallcinations, depression and then came off it, I would appreciate knowing: How much you were on, for how long, how long it took for you to wean off, what your symptoms were and how long did they last?

Has anyone coming off keppra ever had heat tolerant problems? This is my first week off no keppra and it seems very hard to stay anywhere hot like outside even in the evenings.
