Dera lybrate-user,
its not at all a good idea to take the medicatins yu are taking without the advise of a doctor. Keppra and tegrital are medication used for epilepsy. I am not sure what is your diagnosis, but it will be worthwhile giving all the facts and symptoms over time in greater detail and let doctor decide your medication rather than self medication.

Good day. My mother has had encephalitis from the age of 8 and is now 55 and is still suffering from it. We are from south africa. She is currently taking epilem and tegrital for her seizures that she experiences (her eyes roll). I have been hearing a lot about cbd oils and its benefits and would like to get some guidance on trying it out on her. Could you please advise on which cbd oil to use to treat her encephalitis/epilepsy symptoms as well as the dosage if possible. Thank you.

Hello,
there are many choices for control of seizures as a long term management of seizures and many new anti epileptic medication are available which can control seizures, if you mention her weight and the doses of each medicine I am sure her seizures can be controlledcbd oil has unproven track record and I feel it is better to streamline her anti epilepileptic medication.

Asked for male, 33 years old from Gurgaon

I need a answer from allopathic point of view. I have severe pain in my hamstrings and knee pain /inflammation for 10 years. I take muscle relaxant and tegrital which eases the pain of my hamstrings as suggested by neurologist. Is the pain in knees also connected to the pain in hamstring (which I believe is yes, then which doctor should I consult who can club both my issues and help me deal with both.

Ice therapy would definitely help to reduce the inflammation. We also advise you to use knee cap which would help to prevent the knee from damaging further and also to maintain the quadriceps muscle tone. Stiffness have developed due to weakness of the ligaments &inflammed cartilage. Specific knee exercises will also help ie. Keeping ball underneath the knee and keep pressing it. That's the simple exercise which will help you to strengthen the knee

Hi there, I am 24 years old, I have headaches similar to cluster and migraines already 8 years, but in the past 3,4 years I have them every single day. From 15 min till 3h and sometimes couple times a day. Last year I had a surgery, nose septum but it didn't help. This year I have done all the tests, blood image is perfect, thyroid is perfect, mri was good except the diagnosis of all 3 sinuses infection and without liquid in them, but it was determined by the neurologist and orl doctor that I have "chronic complicated migraines" after the treatment with carbamazepine and vitamins, the headaches were still there, nothing has changed. So I did couple days ago the angiography and it was determined that everything normal except sinusitis of all 3 sinuses and "hypoplasia left transverse sinus venous" is this hypoplasia dangerous, how can I cure this? Thank you in advance.

Hello, when my sister was few days old, she suffered from stroke (probably from aneurysm and i'm not sure if this is considered cerebral palsy). She developed weakness in one side of her body but she was able to live a relatively functional life until the age of 19 years, when she started developing epileptic attacks. The attacks are mostly myoclonic with occasional generalized stiffness in her body and sometimes they precipitate falls. The doctor put her on carbamazepine which has marginally controlled her attacks. My question is: are medications the only available option for this condition? I've heard that epilepsy that results from fixed brain lesions are poorly controlled by medications, will surgical evacuation of the dead brain area help controlling the condition better than medications? And if so, I would also like to know if these types of surgeries are well established or just experimental. Thank you for being interested.

Hi sir, I am 23 year old female having temporal lobe DNET which is non progressive and getting absence seizures past 15 years. My first seizure episode was at the age of 3. I used tegrital 200 for 14 years and changed to oxetol 6 months back. I am getting the seizures whatever the medication I take, like once or twice a month for around 10 seconds. I am fine with that. Never faced any problem in my due to seizure as I get back to normal in a few seconds. I'm taking oxetol 450 twice a day. The question is that should I go for surgery? Is it necessary? I'm fine to have the medication forever. Awaiting your reply.

Asked for male, 20 years old from Pune

I'm 20 years old. I'm having the problem of conscious and seizure since I was 4 years old. During that time doctors consulted me tegrital tablet. Later on the problem was solved after continuous dosage for 5 yrs. But since last 4 years the problem again started. The neurologist consulted me oxetol 300 mg twice a day. But after 1 yr, he increased the dose to 450 mg twice a day. But still the problem is not solved. Still I get seizures and unconscious mainly 1or 3 times in a month.

Its very problematic for any indivizual to have repeated seizures. These can hamper your quality of life. So you need to regularise your anti-epileptic medication. Proper seizure control depends on the type of the medication and type of seizure you had. And proper dose according to your body weight. Have you visited your neurologist alone or you been accompanied by any of your family members? Because as a doctor we sometimes need to heard the story from family members of patients to determine th...more
