Yes, it is possible to start a franchise business with epilepsy. However, it's important to carefully consider the demands and responsibilities required to operate a franchise successfully. Factors like managing employees, long work hours, high stress levels, and financial obligations could potentially impact epilepsy symptoms and management. Consulting your neurologist and vocational rehabilitation counselor can help determine if franchising aligns with your health needs and abilities. If interested in pursuing a franchise, be sure to research options thoroughly, develop a detailed business plan, and realistically assess if you have the capacity and support system in place to take on the endeavor. Having contingency plans to accommodate health needs will also be important. With proper planning and preparation, franchising may be feasible for some with well-managed epilepsy.

Just like EricThom said. You need to find a company that franchises, and you have to have money to get started. Yes, you will also worry if it will take off.

I would be running the family business, but due to the age of the equipment and the cost to repair it, the business has closed.

Sure u can. But u have to learn ur limitations and learn to delegate responsibilities to others under ur employment. Once u learn to do that, u can do almost anything work wise. I’m on permanent disability because of my seizures but have wondered and asked my neurologist about it. He said I could start one if I wanted but I wouldn’t be able to run the day to day operation, but I could still own one if I had ppl under me that I really trusted. So to me, that’s just ownership not something that I would feel a part of
