Yes, the past several years I have had seizures on a regular basis than i experienced in the past 17yrs of epilepsy. He increased my seizure medicine to max dosage, added another one. During time I was persistent something is going on, why they increase? He did 2 emu's with no seizures and wanted keep increase 2nd seizures meds. He was persistent I had sleep apnea and the cause of it. Well, I didn't think I did but got sleep study done to comprise and I suggested getting 2nd opinion and he agreed. He said a good doctor will comprise and work with patient as they can. Ended up 2nd opinion and they did 3rd emu and found have PNES, which explains feelings of a seizure to me. I also had sleep apnea. So both of us working together I got answers

It's dif per person, but I myself have not had no disagreement or anything along those lines of happening, it's been since with my current doc good communication and she is a ok communicating with what has to be discussed with me, I don't have any prob with anything as for my condition and such etc, I don't remember anything else in the past since I was diagnosed with my condition being a disagreement either, my opinion here ok as is.

I have always had good conversations with my doctors about my health and my treatment plans. I have had one bad PA and I had to leave the practice. I do have a rule that if a doctor will not laugh with me, I will no longer be seeing them.
