Can Keppra Cause Tingling Sensations In The Left Side Of The Body?
I have numbness and tingling sensations in the left side of my body. Centered around left breast area, left shoulder and left arm. Have already been to cardiologist and given all clear. Currently on Keppra 500 mg day Had a convulsive seizure during a chemo treatment in July. Never lost consciousness and remember seizure from onset to conclusion. Could my weird feelings on left side be from Keppra or damage from seizure. Left side was the affected area during convulsive seizure.

Hello,
* The Keppra ( Levetiracetam ) is usually not associated with tingling in the side of the body.
However, underlying deficiency of vitamin B 12, folic acid, zinc , magnesium or others do present with the same clinical scenario to look into the matter of concern.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
