No relationship: You have two very different and separate issues, and neither causes or affects the other.

Hmmm: No its not related. However I noticed you are on Keppra (levetiracetam) for seizure disorder. So i would suggest speaking with your neurologist to discuss why your lip is numb/tingling. Suggests a cranial nerve problem in your brainstem or brain.
