Worth changing from lamotrigine to oxcarbazepine?

​

Hi everyone (F30) I have absence seizures most days and usually 1 TC seizure every month (around ovulation) I am currently on 275mg lamotrigine per day and my neurologist suggested potentially switching to oxcarbazepine. I don't know much about this drug but lamotrigine does cause me many side effects (headaches fatigue dizziness anxiety etc) I have been on lamotrigine since I was 13 so it's hard to remember what it was like to not live with side effects!

I'm interested to hear other people's experiences with both these drugs (and what dose)

I am also wondering if the lamotrigine itself could be causing the seizures as I have read it can cause them.

Thanks in advance!
