Hello,

Thanks for the query,

I have noted your complaints.

Passing urine three times in sleep could suggest a possibility of seizures in the background of abnormal EEG.

YOUR HEADACHE COULD SUGGEST A POSSIBILITY OF MIGRAINE.
Your EEG findings will guide us to select the appropriate medications. The medications that can help are sodium valproate, topiramate. With due respect to your physician, I feel that you will benefit with valproate. You need to identify the stress and avoid that. Practice relaxation techniques like Meditation also. All these will reduce the headache too.

I hope that I have clarified your query,

Please get back to me, if you have further concerns

Best wishes

Thank you very much for you suggestion, to give you update i took Tagretol few years before,i am not taking any medicine other than Neurobion Forte now a days.
i am also facing ED problem since few years, i guess because of neurological problems.

Should i continue Neurobion Fort with Sodiuam Valporate and what dose of Sodiuam Valporate will you recommend and how long should i take.

Regards

Hello,

There is no definite need of neurobion. You may take valproate (with consultation with a neurologist) for about 6 months and get reviewed . This is a prescription drug and should be rightfully given to you by your physician after an exam.
