Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic.
I have gone through your query.
I think I have understood your concern, I will try to suggest you the best possible treatment options.
Please do not worry about effects of eptoin on baby, as you are 2 months pregnant and already have stopped taking eptoin 6 months back.
It is mostly during first 14 weeks organ development takes place , and drugs like Eptoin exhibit their effects in this period if one is taking these kind of drugs. so do not worry , but do consult neurologist doctor about your condition at least once in every 3 months.
I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
