Did you talk to your neurologist about this. That sounds like a horrible side effect. There has got to be another med you could take.

My side effects are loss of appetite and tiredness, staying to myself (no more anger).

My medication causes uncontrollable muscle eye movements. Everything I see is moving around

I think that one side effect of the medications I take for me has been trouble with my memory. I don't know if my memory problems would have started this soon without the medication.

I don't have side effects with particular medications, suggested vitamin supplements, or the medical devices that are being used. Should ever a side effect take place, the epilepsy specialist will be notified so that issue can be resolved. I closely monitor the devices the best I can so should something not be right with them I can send a note to the epilepsy team then we can get together for a monitor to determine what is happening.

As a matter of fact, one of the devices was acting odd prior to my last visit. I mentioned this to the epilepsy specialist while he was reading then it was discovered the VNS device is at that time for replacement I will be going in for surgery in a few weeks. I am my own advocate and closely monitor my health.
