What kind of advice are you looking for?

I get really bad headaches which are only cleared with the aid of tramadol, which I'll rarely use because they are addictive. Bad smell I get, tastes no. Have a dental check just to make sure nothings wrong there or ask your gp if it could be a reaction to one of your aed's.

Sorry I'm not much help.

Hey I’m new on here I’m Matthew I’m 21

Headaches are common with epilepsy; I wake up with a headache regularly, but find Anadin and Paracetamol are the only tablets that clear it. I have had epilepsy for 45 years now. Our stress level affects our seizures, as well as hormonal imbalances... If this continues speak to the doctor again.
