Epilepsy
"So far it&#039;s been working good and I&#039;ve been seizure free. My last medication was Depakote and that just didn&#039;t work at all I was having seizures at least once a week. Unlucky for me I experienced extreme side effects with felbamate such as insomnia,  nausea, weight loss (which I don&#039;t mind too much) and weakness in the muscles. At first the drug kept me in a real surreal state of mind the first two months I was on it. I was at the highest dose and my doctor decided to lower it to help with the nausea and surrealism. Even after that food just doesn&#039;t look appetizing. It helped with the nausea but the surrealism comes around every now and then. So the drug itself is great but the side effects are just very extreme."
