When You Were Told That Medication To Assist You, Did You Choose Surgery Or Alternative Solutions? How Well Did It Work For You?
I have heard in the past from several friends who have tried many others including surgery, implants or non-medication alternative methods. However, I think it would help if those of you who have to share your experience with those are now at the point where they have been told that medication will never allow them to reach a long-term seizure free state.
If Q + A section was better organized, then I would not have to ask this question, but we have a support site, so we have to do what we can… read more
@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member Everyone gets nervous. Usually what helps is if you talk to your epileptologist/surgeon. From the surgeon, I learned there was a better chance of dying from a car accident… read more

Is Anyone Else Having The Same Problem Of Not Being Able To See All Of The New Messages?
I am still told how many new messages there are each day, but I only have access in the list of a portion of those new messages. For example, right now it indicates that I have 11 more notifications, but there are not any in the new messages box for me to click on. This started a few weeks ago. And I have already contacted the managers of the site (and I was not the first to tell them) and their techs are working on the problem.
I have to click on the bell to actually get a number too!
Who Feel They Cant Spend Their Everyday Life Because Our Epilespy Is In The Way?
For over 18 months, ive have been having bad eyes. The way to explain it, i just suddenly lose my sight, i see double of everything im lookibg at. I cannnot stand the light when it gets too much and i lose my balance. I feel like im having seizures but im awake and consicious. I have to sleep to get my eyes normal again.
Thi ms happebs every day, anytime in the day, at work. Its really upsetting me a lot.

Now that a vaccine for covid is in further trials is anyone worried it will interfere with their current epilepsy medication?
I was completely freaking out about this back when I had to get it for work. Thankfully though nothing happened.
