Sorry to hear that. How did you find out? Will the meds effect your TTC?

Before you get too serious TTC make sure your dr knows you're TTC so the med you take won't hurt a potential baby. Or ask your OBGYN what epilepsy meds you can take.

I had a full round of ivf .. reached egg collection day but had a seizure that day so all ivf cancelled . Had a further 4 fits since. Nuerologist has put me on keppra which is fine to have a baby on as long as i take 5mg of folic acid along side it was just wondering if anyone else in same position. Also my period is 14 days late ... had cramps like it was going to arrive however its just clear stringy discharge coming away but had 3 negative pregnancy tests last monday and friday. God knows whats going on xx
