Hi, there are few centres where they work up refractory epilepsy cases. They basically do mri scans, video eegs and other tests to confirm the location of spread. It may be curable with a surgery life long if maximum dose of medications is not helping you.
Thanks.

Valprol cr is a teratogenic medicine which can have adverse effects on fetus in 6-15% of cases.
In ideal situations, you should have consulted your neurologist before planning pregnancy to start you on a safer alternative.
I hope you have been taking folic acid supplements throughout your pregnancy. It has some protective effects on teratogenicity.

Hello! I understand that you have a number of doctors and psychologists for your health problem. You are taking medicines from the psychiatrists. It is good that it will be helpful to you. But, psychiatric medicines have side effects sometimes. First of all, I think that you have to maintain a routine life everyday. Eat and sleep well. Besides, try to concentrate on certain activities you like much. Do some exercises regularly. You select a person liked by you. You need to share your feelings - ...more

I am under treatment for severe adhd. I’ve been prescribed concert and medicines (methylphenidate) but haven’t responded well to it. After a couple days I stopped because I was having a lot of anxiety and some other minor side effects, but I did’t feel any improvement. If I try ritalin would it be different? I know that it is the same substance just not the same delivery mechanism but does it have the mechanism of action. Or maybe I should try the same medications i’ve been prescribed a little longer and see if it has a different effect? I figured that I should conclude on the effectiveness and respond of the substance on my brain the first time I took it as it is a stimulant but I am not sure. I want to try amphetamine based stimulants but they are’t available in france (there is one -attention 5 mg, a form of dexamfetamine- but it is extremely difficult to have it prescribed). I will soon be on strattera (atomoxetine) and I wonder after a few weeks when it should normally reach its effectiveness will it “work” like a stimulant? I mean will the effects be felt on a daily basis after taking the pill? Thank you.

Hello! sounds to me like you are feeling quite confused and frustrated in the moment. It may be helpful for you to continue the dosage prescribed by your psychiatrist. Sometimes medicines take time to work. All medicines need to be taken for the time they have been given. The regimen matters in psychiatric medication. Unlike other meds, we can not choose to reduce dosage or stop taking. That being said, finish the course and then go to psychiatrist to explain side effects. Sometimes side effects...more
