This is a blog about epilepsy. I have lived with seizures for 25 years now and I want to share my experiences to allow others with epilepsy a chance to compare their experiences to mine and to allow those without epilepsy to understand further the condition and how it effects one. I had the VNS device implanted 4 years ago and have posted on that extensively. Please feel free to comment and I will try to respond.

Vimpat - Day One
I have decided, after speaking with my Dr., to try a new medication for epilepsy called Vimpat. I began taking a very low dose on Monday. Hopefully I will be able to use it in place of the Depakote that I take now. We shall see.
