You can take eptoin as long as your seizures are under control and you do not develop any adverse reactions to eptoin.

I am 52 years old and had blood pressure problem. In 2010 blood sugar was detected fasting 150 & post fasting 225. Glucoman 500g. I took it for more than 2 years and sugar was under control. But for last 9 month I was erratic as the med was not available in lagos nigeria. About a fortnight back my sugar was high fasting 320 and post fasting 452. Now my doc prescribed me janumet 50mg/1000mg twice a day. The sugar has come down to fasting 150 and post fasting 275. Moreover the bp has also come down 75/130. Can you suggest what to do.

Dear , please get a hba1c level done, which is a parameter of last three month's average blood sugar levels. Send me the report, then I would advise you the correct treatment.

You can continue same. Initial few days there will be acidity but it subside with time. So dont worry.

My husband took Thyrocare test. Below results were found. Hs-crp greater than 9.65 mg/mg LDL: 128 mg/dl HDL: 35 mg/dl I am worried about high hs-crp value. It says it's greater than 9.65 but how much, it is not mentioned. He is 30 years old. One year back hs-crp was 2.66 mg/ml. It all increased in one year.

As per standard protocols, there needs to at least 5 years of seizure free period before tapering and stopping medications. Newer protocols followed by some doctors believe in stopping medications even if there is 1 year of seizure free interval. It is best that you consult with your neurologist and let him decide on what is best for you.
