Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Above anti epileptic drugs may cause weight gain and drowsyness. Pain under right breast may be due to mastitis or fungal infection or fibroadenoma is etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Please consult your surgeon he will examine the right breast and treat you accordingly.
