These dreams usually give me fast pounding heartbeat and anxiety sweat whenever i wake up because it feels so real. Like if in that dream i am so scared or sad because of something, it feels so real that when i wake up, it takes me a couple of mins to get out of those but my heart is thumping so hard and fast, takes awhile for it to calm down. I cant ever sleep in peace anymore. Epilepsy?? Or meds?? Whats causing this??

I dont know about keppra, but i am on vimpat right now and the dreams are always intense ans vivid. I wake up in sweats from the anxiety i get in the dreams because they seen so real. This happens everynight or EVERYTIME i sleep. So i dont know if this is caused by having epilepsy or the medication.
