    I just got some wonderful news from the doctor. My Keppra levels are right where they should be.

    As long as I take the meds, the seizures should be kept at bay. They will soon just be bad memories and a tiny smudge on my medical record.

    Is that precautionary?

    It's to see if maybe the scar tissue from my shunt is causing them. Kinda hope that's the case honestly.

    Have you had recent seizures in the last month? I can understand it will help being able to isolate the cause

    No. I've only had two. May 28 and July 25.

    My advice is get good and stoned first. I did that and never wanted to come out of the thing.

    Don't corrupt the minds of the youths, @Birdleson. You can't spell marijuana without an M, R and I, but that's no excuse. ;)

    That's encouraging what medication do you take?

    It's called Keppra. They're real big, nasty, pink things that can hardly be classified as pills (horse pills?), but I guess if they help that's a plus.

    Sorry for late reply fell asleep after work, from what I know of the medication it's very effective, good luck tomorrow.

    You are an inspiration to me and I hope many others. Good luck with your test and the results that will follow.

    Oh, it's not bad really. I have had many CT scans over the years and this is basically the same procedure, just with a more in-depth image. I'll be alright. ;)

    MRI complete. Results expected within the next couple days.

    Not bad at all. Heck, I even got to listen to classical music.
