Sponsor PatM 05-21-2002, 05:31 PM many times panic attacks and epilepsy go hand in hand. do you have different doctors perscribing different medications? if so keep each doctor aware of what the other doctor is perscribing. some medications may have bad interactions with another medication. good luck Kimberly04 05-21-2002, 06:04 PM Im taking Lamictal for my epilepsy but im not taking anything for my anxiety attacks i just have breathing techiques that i do. ------------------ ~*Luvya*Kimberly*~ Kokopelli 05-21-2002, 07:24 PM Kim, I would ask your doctors about possibility of taking a mild Anti depresent.. I had to do this when I was on felbatol had three real bad panick attacks ... just something mild.... Koko Beth's Mom 05-21-2002, 09:07 PM Koko, How are you today? I forgot you tried Felbatol. How long did you try it before they stopped offering it widely? Marilyn Kimba523 05-23-2002, 03:17 AM Kimberly, I had panic/anxiety attacks religiously because I was afraid I'd seize in public. I refused to go in public. I feared the "humiliation" and disorientation. After discussing it with my neuro, I was placed on Paxil. It's an anti-anxiety med that works wonders for me. Ask your neuro, perhaps he/she thinks it's right for you. Kimba |
