Brief Answer:
Consultation

Detailed Answer:
I think there are a few possibilities about what happened here. First, it is possible that you actually took temazepam and oxazepam by mistake instead of taking Keppra and Topamax. Second, it may be that the test was switched with another patient's test by mistake. Third, it may be that the test is faulty and need to be repeated. I advise you to urge your doctor to repeat the test last as it may have been faulty.
