My son who is 41 years old started having seizures last October. The doctors have not determined what has caused him to start having them. he has them one the average of 1 - 2 per month He is taking keppra. When he has these seizures he passes out. I live in Texas and he lives in Washington State. He has been seeing an neurologist but nothing seems to be helping. He has had CT and MRI s but nothing is showing up. He is loosing his memory with these seizures. He forgot my parents died 3 years ago when I just spoke with him and he asked me the same questions 3- 4 times. I would like for him to see someone else but living so far away, I am not sure what I can do or who I should turn to in Washington State. He lives in Richland. Do you have any suggestions what to suggest him to do or where to go for more help. Money is a concern as he has not been able to work, nor drive and he does not have any insurance. Thanks
Hi, 41 yrs old patient with seizure disorder on tab keppra is having recurrent seizures . So antiepileptic should be changed or its dose should be increased . If seizures are controlled by this then it should be continued for 3 yrs . Thanks
