###Human: What is causing three seizures in a day after delivery? ###Assistant: Hello. I read carefully your question and would explain that the aura that you explain (electric shock feeling in the thumb) are not typical of epilepsy. So, considering the fact that you have been on 200 mg of Tegretol (which is a really non-effective dose) with no seizures, I do not think that these auras are related to the seizures. Besides all your repeated EEG are normal (which would not result in case of frequent seizures). They seem to be just anxiety, especially after giving birth (depression and anxiety are quite common after giving birth). For this reason, I agree with your doctor on the recommendation of trying Alprazolam. It is fine to increase the Tegretol dose to 600 mg daily. It can help against anxiety too. I would also recommend checking Tegretol (Carbamazepine) plasma levels in order to make the proper adjustments to the dose based on its plasma levels. If Alprazolam helps, I would recommend adding low dose Sertraline or Fluvoxamine to your therapy.
