1. Went to Dr. Igor Koralnik on Wed Dec. 3rd at 1pm. It has been determined the HIV is not causing nor having any further affects on the seizures. Was recommended that a different Medication is added. Will continue to stick with Dr. James Berry @ MGH.
2. Proceeded to have a seizure Wed. Night . Fell right back to sleep so wasn’t 100% sure if it was a dream. But when I got up I had a splitting headache and my right arm was sore. So I knew it was definately a seizure. I called Dr. Berry.
3. He suggested that we move off the Keppra and on to a new med Lamictal
Break down of how it will work!
First 2 weeks:
Lamictal
25 mg once at night
Keppra
1500 mg twice a day
Next 2 weeks:
Lamictal
50 mg once at night
Keppra
1500 mg twice a day
Next 2 Weeks:
Lamictal
75 mg once at night
Keppra
1000 mg twice a day
Next 2 Weeks:
Lamictal
100 mg once at night
Keppra
500 mg twice a day
Then stop the Keppra and stick with Lamictal!!!!!
