[|Human|] Hi, I have a history of seizures. i have experienced most of the types them. For the past few years my meds have kept me perfect with no seizures at all. Last Dec. though, I had a major funky seizure in which the left side of my body went numb. Just that tingly feeling, not dead weight numb. Dr Peng says it was a seizure, because there was no sign of stroke . Since then, I have had migraines. I had a seizure tonight. I remember being in one place then woke up in another. I had a migraine before it had and a worse one after. I went to the ER. They gave me imitrex for my migraine. My question is: Why is my head going numb? Are they seizures? Or is the side affects of the 100mgs Topamax?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for contacting Chat Doctor. You have both migraine and epilepsy. Therefore, tokamak (topiramate) is a good choice for you, as it is effective against both the conditions. Tokamak is a fairly safe medication and the common side effects are tingling and numbness of feet & legs and weight loss. Numbness of head is usually not due to tokamak. It is either due to after effect of seizure (postictal state) or a minor seizure. Wishing you good health, Chat Doctor.
