Dave, you should make sure you have your eyes checked every year. Things could be happened that we don't know about but our eye doctor can see.
Get some rest today and enjoy today.

Some weight gain

My eye doctor checks me twice a year because of another genetic problem, NF1. He knows what to look for because of the problems epilepsy and NF1 can bring me.

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member Sometimes they try to plan for the mix of meds. Like adding a second med because they know how it acts on its own, and how it usually acts when mixed with the first, yeah. I agree with what you said. Sometimes a person has unexpected reactions. I had very drastic reactions to some of the meds I took, and they were so rare that my doctor didn't even know about them without additional research into them. As in like 1 other person ever experienced it during trials kind of rare. So they try to plan mixed reactions, or individual ones, but it doesn't always work out. We actually thought I was the first, like a weird allergic reaction.
