A big thank you to LOAx3 for starting this thread. As well as others who have TLE and have responded. I was dx at age 12 with E, unknown when they started. But around the same time, along with all the symptoms that go with the sz's, I began to experience a lot of mental difficulties (depression, hypomania, mood swings, memory probs, etc.). My new pdoc changed my dx to bipolar disorder with anxiety just last year. So I too have been spending quite a bit of time learning about the possible links between them all. It's fascinating how my anti-convs are also used in the treatment of mental disorders. Looking back, there was definately a difference in my mental status when on Tegretol & Topamax. Since being weaned off both and now take Keppra & Lyrica, my moods have been a rollercoaster

Best Wishes to all living with multiple dx
