In reply to seeing neuro on Friday- any advice?, posted by judy1 on June 12, 2000, at 20:47:13

> I've been having periods of "zoning out" for about the past 3 weeks. A couple of times have been dangerous- I turned the wrong way on a one way street and came to the sounds of horns honking, another time I fell and cut my arm (I don't actually remember falling). My Internist felt it was the drugs I'm taking- depakote, neurontin, klonopin, and risperdal- but I have taken this combo before and at higher doses w/o any serious problems. My shrink thinks I'm dissociating- I have done that before. I had a seizure (grand mal) after a head injury 2 years ago, but the EEG was normal and I haven't had any seizures since. I spoke to my Neurologist on the phone today and he said to stop driving immediately, but says until he examines me he won't venture any diagnosis. Is there any relationship between bipolar disorder and epilepsy? Does this sound like a purely psych problem? I'm scared, and any input would help. Thank you.


How long have you been taking Neurontin?
How much are you taking?
How quickly did you increase the dosage?
