I read your question carefully and understand your concern.From what i read you take valparin and still have seizures. If that is the case you should see a neurologist who can prescribe a second medication for you. You can consider stopping valparin after being at least 1 year without seizures. As of right now, do not stop to take valparin.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Kind regards,
Dr. Wu
