Epilepsy and Keeping in Shape

Daily I’m on 300mg/day of Dilantin & 50mg/day of amitriptyline. I’m also on 400mg/day of Lamictal now for 20 years and have been seizure free for 19 years but never know if and when that will/may change. So I exercise every other day at a gym to be keeping in shape.

I suggest all of us should do this because, by being in shape, sleeping right, eating right, taking our medicines – we are better able to meet the need to walk a straight line to help keep seizures away.

If they do come back, we are better strengthened to handle the falls…. So please go out and get in shape and Stay Strong!!
