If I would still have Epilepsy knowing how it feels to truly live with the problem and have his knowledge taught by another professor and books of how it works. I believe I would most likely be better at emotional help since I truly know how it is living with Epilepsy. I may attempt harder not just for my patient but doing it for myself also. How do I know the treatment I give my patients won't help myself also.

As a former Corpsman. That's combat medic. Heck yeah I would love to have that person's job. To share smiles and hand out lollipops, even to the grown ups, just to show support and share the knowledge to my patients who I treat with kind and respect, the importance of what to do and what to think about and how to always think ahead to doing the next step in medical (and that's all) that I can offer and pass along. I would love THAT job. Not seeing and doing what I had to do. Especially other men and vets. And now we have women who whom are not as afraid of being "disabled". Yeah. I would love that personal perspective in life. Not the one I grew up military with. But yeah I know the feeling of the day I stood in the yellow footsteps. SEMPER FI.

No, not myself. Depending on what, let's say on somethings maybe. That's why don't hesitate to ask questions.

I don't know if I could handle that job. I tried watching a video just once that I figured out quickly was being done by someone who was an epilepsy doctor and/or medical teacher. (He wasn't dressed that way.) The description of neuron behavior as causes of different types of seizures and how doctors used them to select different types of medications to treat them had me lost in about 10 minutes!

The only thing that was remotely familiar was that I recognized some of the medications themselves and could use them as hooks to help me grasp a little of the rest of it.
