I'm tired today.  My neurologist has increased one of my seizure meds Trileptal because my seizure activity has increased. Not only has it increased but they are different types of seizures. I have to go from 300 mgs twice a day to 300 mgs in the AM and 600 mgs in the PM.  Then to 600 mgs twice a day.  I have to gradually increase this after a week of the PM increase.  Okay so now I can fall asleep earlier than 7 PM.  Hey would you like to know what my meds consist of.  Okay I will tell you.......

And, yet I function.  How?  I still can't believe it.  I wonder if I will be able to after the increase of the Trileptel.   The neuro tells me that maybe wel will be able to stop the Topamax and just go with the Trileptel.  I dunno.  I didn't tell her yesterday but I believe that the Topamax is keeping the head pain somewhat at a tolerable level. 

Just a note:  Check out Loretta's journal this month, she is writing excellent stuff about Lupus. It's  Lupus Awareness Month!  You go Loretta.  If it weren't for my Dear Friend Loretta,  I wouldn't be writing this journal at all.  So do what I say and read her journal okay. I really think you should have a peek.
