Hello everyone, I am 20 and was diagnosed with epilepsy when I was 18 and was put on Depakote then taken off due to weight gain and put on Topamax, which is what I'm currently taking. Just recently I had a new diagnosis of Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy and was put on Folic Acid and Keppra. So now I'm taking three medications. I have only had one grand mal seizure, but every day my mind does this thing where it kind of blanks out when I'm talking and I stare for a couple of seconds, that's when I took an EEG and it determined I had JME. But since I have been on Keppra my mind hasn't spaced out, but I have been in a lot of pain. Whenever I open my mouth I feel a sharp pain in the right side of my head and jaw, I have severe headaches now, I get extremely dizzy, I feel so weak every day, I get menstrual cramps but I'm not menstruating. I guess my question is Keppra a good medicine to be taking? Is there anything else out there for these "spacing out" episodes? If I have only had one seizure should I really have to take three medicines? Thanks in advance for any answers anyone can give me.
