seizures
Does anybody have seizures? I have uncontrollable seizures, and in this forum I haven’t seen anybody dealing with seizures. So if anybody is dealing with seizures let me know so I don’t feel so alone.

Re: Never saw this coming
Thank you so much I will look into this, with this brain tumor growing it is making things ugly. Now it is a race between the tumor and the meds, and not sure who is running the show, I do know I am not even up there in the drivers seat. I started the new seizure drug last night, lacosamide, I am su...

I wish I could say it is the interferon, but I started to have seizures while I was on no MS meds. My old doc was useless, when my mother saw one of my seizures she suggested I get a new doc. I did and to my surprise I was suffering from seizures. I have a pretty good team of docs, but now I have so...
