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.

Need not worry for the side effects, get a scan done around 6-7wks, if gud you can continue and nt scan around 11-13 wks and double screening test.
And tiffa scan at 18-20 wks
these r routinely done for everyone but you should get it done fr sure.

Everything under sun has effects+side effects.
Do not worry about side effects as they are not likely to be significant.
Do consult psychaitrist for depression or anxiety instead of just stopping treatment.
Of course consult gynecologist for pregnancy.

Strong counselling sessions are required. Use the medicine whenever you feel normal then leave it. It is best as soon as possible you should come out from the medicine.
