Guest guest Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Okay, I think I have the twitches figured out. The Geodon I'm on can cause twitching, so I think that is part of it. Also, my EEG from a couple of months ago showed that I'm still having breakthrough seizure activity, although my doctor doesn't want to increase my dosage on my medications. I'm pretty sure some of the twitches are from that - I can readily identify the two different types of twitches. And the neuro just put me on a migraine medication that, you guessed it, can cause seizures. He doesn't seem too concerned about it, even though I have breakthrough activity on EEG. Grrr.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 The neuro isn't concerned that the new migraine med can cause seizures?!? I'm sorry to hear that. It seems to me that a person with seizures shouldn't take ANY med than can cause seizures! What are you going to do? Is the new migraine med working for the headaches?hugs SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 I haven't tried it. They only had 1 sample, and I haven't had a migraine yet. Yeah, I'm worried about taking it, too.Tina The neuro isn't concerned that the new migraine med can cause seizures?!? I'm sorry to hear that.
