Finishing keppra symptoms

Hi my husband has weaned and come off keppra , after having only one sleep seizure. Since coming off, sleeping has been rough. Shallow breathing , gasping, twithching,and waking coughing , to a point can't get breath due to mucus in throat. Has no other symptoms of a cold etc. Not sure if need to assume it's due to coming off meds and brain activity at night causing shallow breathing , gasping twitching, coughing to the point can't breathe ??

  1. I’m sorry to hear your husband is experiencing these symptoms. For safety reasons, we are not able to suggest any possible causes for his recent issues as we are not medical professionals. If you haven’t already, I would encourage you to reach out to his doctor. I hope he is feeling better and getting better quality sleep soon. All my best. Julie (team member)
