    Did you experience loss of appetite when you were on Zonisamide? I find your description of safety and a Halo when on the drug interesting. Thanks for sharing 💜

      I did experience loss of appetite while on Zonisamide. I've actually lost about 30 pounds throughout the year. Mostly from only eating twice per day. I have my daily breakfast of two fried eggs with toast and my dinner. Sometimes I wont even have the appetite for dinner, so I force myself to eat something. Have you been on Zonisamide?
      Funny thing is after I told my neuro the Zonisamide was starting to become my "safety blanket", he slowly began dropping my dosage. Bye, bye blanket. Hello growth.

      @@ElectricEpileptic I wonder if your description of symptoms concerned him. If I had to speculate, your new doc might have thought that safety blanket feeling was pretty strong side-effect and saw you're on a high dose of Zonisamide. I have not been on Zonisamide, I started with Keppra for a year then switched to lamictal which is what I am on now.

    Congratulation on four and a half months of seizure-free!
