What Causes Dizziness Attacks,weakness,loss Of Memory And Vomiting Sensation?

hello, I am 23 years old male, i was accidentally shot in the head with a bird bullet rifle when i was 9, it got me into a coma for 20 days and i was operated on so that the bullet was removed from my head. I have been taking epanutin for 13 years now, and 5 years ago i took kepra because i was feeling slight headaches, however i stopped it because it caused very high depression and stiffness in movement(i have weakness in my right arm and leg). So i dumped the kepra, i am not using it anymore. 2 months ago, i have been experiencing dizziness attacks that will last for a minute or two but the after effects would last for several hours and sometimes for several days, these effects are weakness in body, vision, feeling like i want to vomit, i lose memory and feel frightened. I want to know what is causing these attacks and if its from the medication or not. thanks

thanks for asking us question,

first before you stopped using the keppra please did you consult your doctor? because one of the instruction of kepra is that you dont stop the drug suddenly due to the effect that will result along the line. You may have increased seizures if you stop using Keppra suddenly. You may need to use less and less before you stop the medication completely.
