Question

I wouldlike to speak or hear from someone that has complex partial seizures and 1 Knows of any latest Aaeds(Anti epileptic drugs) that have come out and their side effects. 2 Who has funny things that go on with their eyes ooccasionallyfor a minute or so. Won't always be the same things ooccurring EG( Might see colours or things looked distorted.)

Answer 1

The 'funny things' and colors going on with your eyes is known as an aura, or your bodies way of giving you a warning of an oncoming seizure.

Speak with your neurologist, but I have heard good things about Keppra for seizure control

Good Luck.

Answer 2

I have complex partial seizures and get a weird deja vu type aura were things look kind of blurred or the lighting feels weird.  As far as anti-epileptic drugs I know there is a new generic version of lamictal, you can find all the side effects on their website (below).  I'm not sure what you mean with your last question though.  I guess when I have a seizure I look like I'm staring into space or daydreaming.

Answer 3

I had seizures that were so bad that I would have 8 or 9 a day or more. So, I was fortunate to have a very good brain surgeon that corrected the problem. I still have to be on a anti inflammatory  regimen and still see colored shapes. Sometimes I get lighted with blurred vision but it doesn't last long. I now get headaches and sometimes they are so severe that I get sick. But that all bets having seizures all the time and not remembering what happened.  

Answer 4

marijuana stops epilepsy dead in its tracks look that one up it cant stop cancer or none a that kind a stuff it can prevent it but i kno it stops epilepsy dead in its tracks. talk to a doctor about it for sure tho thats the safest way to go to b afraid to bring it up
