Zonegran, kidney stones

Tue, 06/02/2009 - 16:20
I have been on Zonegran for about 6 months with what I thought were no problems but, I just spent four days in the hospital and had to have surgery to remove a kidney stone. I drink about 10-12 cups of water a day. I have noticed recently my seizures have been worsening in intensity as well how often I have I have them. I used to only have nocturnal and absence seizures and now I am having what the Dr. described as partial complex seiz. and I had 5 in a row coming out from anaesthesia. If anyone knows of a med that is similar to zonegran, thats really what I need help with because when I asked the Dr. he just said well they ALL have side effects. Thanks

Not every whey protein protein supplements are identical though, so make sure to look into the dosages and elements that one you would rather use. A great deal is dependent in your personal preference for taste and flavor. Some mix simpler this will let you better taste, even when exactly the same flavor. Like the majority of items, different brands are slightly different.  Discount Vitamins

my daughter has also had a problem with kidney stones at such a  young age. I have bought her cdb oil and she no longer takes her epilepsy meds. Whom big pharma does make a lot of money from. It is all a racket. they keep you sick to keep the money flowing to them.
