Thank You, Melva. I have an appointment next week with my doctor and I will tell him what you said. Bill

: : Lately, while completing forms at work or typing on the computer, I have been mixing the letters up on a few words. It doesnt happen all the the time but enought to take recognition. I am on 400 mg of dilantin and had only 1 seizure in the last 4 years. (Seizure was 3 months ago). Anyone else having this problem or might know the cause?

: Bill, I also have a problem with writing and typing. Oftentimes after I have written or printed
: something when I look at it the first letter of the word is missing. This has happened for years
: and about 1 year ago I noticed it was happening when I typed words also. If I wrote the word
: 'something' I thought I was writing every letter but when I looked at it it would be 'omething'.
: I was diagnosed after 40 years with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy. I have only been diagnosed for
: 2 years. I took Tegretol for 6 months but now take no meds. I think you should surely tell
: your Doctor aboutthe letter mix up. My Doctor seemed to think when I did it, it was some form
: of seizure. Melva
