What Causes Dizziness And Blurry Vision When Suffering From Small Seizures?

I was diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis in 2010. I was prescribed Keppra and Lemictal and I have been seizure free since 2011. Well, I say seizure free, but what I mean is that I have not had any partial complex seizures since July 2011. I still continue to have absence seizures, and I suspect I have had some seizures when I sleep. I believe my last sleep seizure was a few days ago. These smaller seizures usually leave me overly tired with some nasty head aches. At any rate, the past few days, I've had what I describe as head fuzziness. I feel dizzy like the room is spinning, but it's not a real significant dizziness as in I don't feel I'm going to fall. I also feel my head pulsing, and my eyesight is blurry. I don't have a head ache. I just don't feel right. I'm in between neurologists and waiting for a referral after my insurance officially changes. i know I need to see my neurologist, but in the meanwhile, can someone suggest what might be going on?

Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe you have correctly diagnosed your problem.It is to be treated in a different regimen of the tablets.
I advise you to consult a neurologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have a C.T.scan and E.E.G. for diagnosis.
I advise you to avoid some drugs which have seizures as a side effect like antihistamins,antibitics like cefran etc.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
