34 yrs,7 meds and a surgery later: Only Marijuana controls my seizures. Less side effects, less money, and greatly improved quality of life.

It took some time to determine, but the fact of the matter is that Marijuana is the only medication that controls my seizures. I regret not trying it until after I graduated high school. Phenabarbital, Dilantin, Trileptal, Keppra, Vimpat, Fycompa, Lamictal, Surrgery: I SWEAR TO YOU, FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART THAT MARIJUANA IS THE ONLY SOLUTION FOR MY EPILEPSY! I FINALLY HAVE SOME FREEDOM BACK IN MY LIFE :o)

Lamictal for me caused weird side effects until I got used to it. I take 200mg twice a day. I do get dizzy spells and I get tired from it. I also take Keppra... I sleep a lot! Mostly my seizures are controlled other than about every four months or so... I don’t have bad ones though... I know what I’m doing and what’s going on around me when mine happen... I can still drive so I’m thankful for that.
