I read your question carefully and I understand your concern.

However I am afraid that more information is needed in order to try and help you. To start with it is unclear what types of seizures (fits) you have. There are many seizure types and appropriate medication varies according to that.
In addition to that you don't mention any tests. Brain imaging, EEG and some blood tests are needed in all patients with epilepsy in order to characterize seizures and determine best treatment.
Furthermore you mention the drugs you have taken but not the dosage (how many tablets per day). It might be that the drug was appropriate but the dosage too low. There are also blood tests which determine drug level in the blood to assess whether to raise the dosage.
So as you see more information is needed to try to help you. Please search for medical reports. If no tests were done they should be ordered by your doctor.
