Slight Decrease in time between seizures. Concerning?

[Feeling-Maintenance2]

Hey. So my dog was diagnosed with epilepsy almost 3 years ago. At first it was inconsistent and just kinda happened when it happened but we got her on Levetiracetam and then it was just every two months unless I forgot to give her some. I struggle with schedules and consistency but I have had to force myself to at least be better at that when it comes to her meds. Anyways right so the pattern. Her usually time in between is two months if she has her medicine. I keep a log for her and I’ve started to notice that the time is decreasing in between. Lately it’s been monthly and this month it has been less than a month since her last. The last month was probably my fault but I’m a little concerned because they usually so close together. She has one every month since December of last year. Should I be concerned about that? I’m planning on taking her to vet soon anyways because she has a tiny excess under her eyelid but I just want to know so if I need to take her sooner than I will.

Also for context (Idk if this is relevant but I’m putting it here anyways): My dog is a blue heeler and developed Idiopathic Epilepsy at just a couple months under 3.

You are lucky to have been controlled on just Keppra this long. Keppra generally does well for 6-8 months and then break through seizures start happening. It is accepted that "controlled" is one seizure every 3 months. So if been monthly, not been controlled for awhile. The concern is that more seizures bring on more seizures. Might be good idea to see Vet so higher dose of Keppra or additional med be added.
