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 200 Mg
Today is my first day taking 200 Mg of Vimpat twice a day. I am being especially wary of any of the possible know side effects, such as blurred vision or dizzyness. It has been two hours since my first dose. No sign of issues yet.
Hope the lack of side effects continues .. and hope that its reduces your seizure frequency. Looked up some of the trials and it looks like it has modest success.
"In the studies, patients taking Vimpat® at 200mg and 400 mg/day experienced a median percent reduction in seizure frequency per 28 days of 33.3% and 36.8%, respectively, versus only 18.4% reduction in the placebo group. Additionally, 34.1% and 39.7% of patients taking Vimpat® at 200 mg and 400 mg/day, respectively, experienced >50% reduction in seizure frequency vs. only 22.6% in the placebo group" http://www.ucb.com/media-room/newsdetail/?det=1317578
Of course I hope for more than modest success in your case but any improvement is improvement.
THANKS TO DR EWOIG FOR CURING MY SON My son has partial epilepsy for the past 18 years. Dr's have tried various means but he has seizures almost every month. The first epileptic occurred when he was five years old. i took him to a specialist who subscribed anti-epileptic medication. From then on he had to take four capsules per day, but most of the time he had seizures until I got to know about Dr.ewoig product to cure epilepsy. we order for the product, now i can tell you my son is now living a better life thanks to dr ewoig His herbal remedy is the only permanent solution to Seizure.
