Last week I had a seizure cluster with four seizures and was hospitalized for two days. I am still feeling the effects of this. The most irritating postictal symptoms I am feeling is agitation and anxiety. What I want to know is when these feelings will go away.

My son is 40 & has epilepsy. He's on Lamatrigne. I wanted to know why he's so exhausted?
side effects like fatigue and insomnia are fairly common with anti seizure meds. I’m including an article with some additional information that I hope will provide some insight https://epilepsydisease.com/medication. I would also encourage you to reach out to his doctor, if you haven’t already. They may be able to offer alternatives or suggestions to help with the fatigue. Please do not hesitate to reach out anytime. All my best, Julie (team member)
