For Seizures "I have a brain tumor and experience simple focal seizures in my left foot/leg. Prior to medication, I was experiencing a seizure every other day. When I started taking Xcopri, I was taking Keppra and Vimpat.

I eat a large meal to mitigate the effects, but the dizziness is so bad that I cannot safely stand, even with a cane.
