Hey guys as many of you know I've been having a  reoccurrence of seizures since a car accident. My doc at the VA doubled my dose of Keppra from 500MG twice a day to 1000 twice a day. Since I have been extremly hostile, aggravated, and for lack of a better word a dick. 

These are side effects of the medication according to websites. Does any one else have experience with this medication? Will my body get use to the new dose and will the side effects go away? I never experienced this at 500MG twice a day. Is this to high a dose?

 
No but chantix made my life hell my husband was so mean to me and he just woke up and the days of crying for no reason I thought he was going insane until I went to a site about chantix made him stop and he's a lack of better terms normal for a man. I would definitely talk to your doctor because those side effects are freaking scary Maybe they can find something different for you to take because that obviously doesn't seem to be working out for you @US Army Veteran but hell thank god im not a doctor I'd probably be giving advice take more! I wouldn't stop until you speak to your doctor those side effects aren't just hell on you but the people who love you. Wishing you the best let us know how it works out . Thinking of you long time.....

 
I do not take this particular med, but my disbaled son does and he has never mentioned that particular symptom, but has has not adjusted much at all.  I take 600 mg of Trileptal/day and that same exact thing happens to me, but only when I change the dosage.  When you are going up, it takes time to get used to it.  Just be patient.  When you go down, it will go on for a few days.  I actually find it useful to me because I can recognize the anger and agitation by late afternoon because when I forget to take it in the morning.  Nice reminder, plus I get to get pissy for a while, which is not my normal personality.  Sometimes I say too easily what I'm thinking if I get agitated, you just have to watch it because it can turn into serious anger.  You've got to be aware and check yourself.  Hope that is helpful.  Also, yes, Chantix is no bueno.

regards,

chctwo

  1. xenxra @ xenxra: @WTF7218 it may as well be that way with how little effort some of the people on here make to find information that's exactly where you would expect it to be.
  2. ontovzik @ ontovzik: When I had long term shingles, lasting two months. All he could give me was a 10 day supply of dilaudid. He looked at the ground while we were talking about it. I could tell he was ashamed but it was the legislature and the governor that tied his hands. He was very upset that non-medical political people, the media, and the scared public were controlling how he treated his patients. Someday those people will need meds and a hospital bed and they will be gone.
  3. ontovzik @ ontovzik: I had a great doctor, he had the true gift of a healer and he stayed on top of all the science. He straight up told me that for many people opiods work for managing short and long term pain.
  4. ontovzik @ ontovzik: He peed it in the snow in my backyard.
  5. WTF7218 @ WTF7218: @xenxra 😆😂. Yes, but only a few brave souls will ever find the number. You must first order a Dirty Shirley from the bartender. Then you must discreetly take the cocktail napkin from under your drink and unfold it. There you will find the map to the location of the phone number, and clues to decipher the code that it is written in.
  6. xenxra @ xenxra: he left his phone number scribbled in a stall at the pub three blocks down
  7. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar I would try one of those easy online ones .. reddit gives useful info about that
  8. Alkazar @ Alkazar: @NYStateofMind I dont really have a history of abusing things, my docotr is just really stingy. I am thinking of switching.
  9. C @ Cheesus: Thanks xenxra
  10. xenxra @ xenxra: @Cheesus yeah, use snote
  11. P @ psychedpsych: Trump is cracking down….
  12. P @ psychedpsych: Hackers are the scum of the earth
  13. N @ NYStateofMind: so it was easy bc of my history
  14. N @ NYStateofMind: I didnt really tell him but he knew I needed a new script since my dr went to jail
  15. N @ NYStateofMind: @xenxra I was on Adderall since 15 years ago so my dr prescribed that w no problems and then when I lost my best friend my doctor rxed the valiums but
  16. C @ Cheesus: Temp.pm down for anyone else?
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: @NYStateofMind my doctor's have always been pretty open minded if i can actually come in and explain the pharmacological action of the drugs im seeking instead of just telling them why i think i should be prescribed. the only time it didn't work out for me is when i was trying pharmaceuticals for depression ten years ago and suggested they let me try testosterone instead (turns out i was hypogonadal so they made a mistake denying my request at face value)
  18. T @ Testisthebest: Even down here in Florida when the pill mill docs all switched over to Suboxone and/or retired you can still find some pretty liberal docs but you gotta know what to look for. Mine does "pain management, detox, anxiety,etc. And no insurance. My doc writes me 60 5mg Valium, 14 2mg Xanax and asked if I had ever tried adderal to get more focus at work as I told him I run my own business.
  19. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar do they know your history? Like I dont tell my doctor anything about myself except what they need to know,...I was able to get my dr to rx the highest dose of adderall along with valiums ..... if they dont know your history or there is no history I would just come out and ask what is the reason for their mistreatment.... they have no problem billing your insurance or taking a payment for the visit
  20. T @ Turbo259: @Layne_Cobain Thank you fam
