Does Anyone Have Seizures And Go Kinda Nutty With Mood Swings Right Before Getting A Cold Sore?

A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­
Amherstburg, ON

I was days away from a 3 month seizure free stretch. I got malaize and almost non functional. Then I had the seizure. I went manic afterwards and became full of despair after that. Then the cold sore arrived. I feel okay now. This is not the first time this has happened with the cold sores appearing afterwards.

I think I often get mouth sores because meds cause dry mouth. It’s a drag, both uncomfortable and painful.
