Answers:
Directly.? I dunno. Indirectly.? It's a possibility. If you have an epileptic disorder there are a few things that could be happening. You may have small seizures in your sleep. The rapid movement of muscles and joints could have a big effect on your RA especially after a larger seizure. Last time I had a seizure I felt like I had worked out for a few days straight. also if you are taking any medication for epilepsy it could effect any medications your taking for RA. Carbomezapine interacts with a lot of stuff as well as Tegrotol. Your best bet is to consult your doctor AND pharmacist.Health Question & Answer
