Tablets Exp

Tablets Exp
Question for ppl who have epilepsy & tried to concieve?

I had a brain opertaion last year to remove a tumour - which after the trauma from the op has given me epliepsy. My epilepsy is not from a primary source, it has only come on through the op. My Neurologist has prescribed me Keppra tablets now which I take twice a day 1250mg day & same of the night. I have read on net that these tablets can harm & increase your risks of birth defects by a small percentage whilst pg. I have started taking folic acid at the Dr's prescribed amount of 5mg per day. But I know this will only help reduce the risk of a defect not elimnate it all together.
Does anyone here have any exp in pregnacy whislt taking anti epileptic drugs & what was your exp in pregnacy like? did you have to come off you tablets to help you concieve etc? does your hospital monitor you more closely ie scans due to your medical history? have they ever suggested a c section instead of normal birth due to risks.

Many Thanks in advance

there are great epilepsy websites where you can get all your questions answered.
my cousin has epilepsy, since the age of 12. she's now 32 but never succeeded in getting pregnant. epilepsy drugs tend to lower the chances of getting pregnant, but you have to weigh the pros and cons. you can't stop taking a drug , when you need it. my cousing stopped taking her drugs, under medical observation of course, a couple of years ago. the reason was that her epilepsy was due to adoloscence, and she didn't need the treatment any more. but she still didn't conceive. now she's in the process of adopting a beautiful baby boy. so, although i wish you best of luck in getting pregnant, there are always other roads to happiness.

goodluck and all the best for your health and hapiness.
