Hi all, I was interviewed about the explosion at Saxavord spaceport a few weeks ago and it turned out I’d met the journalist before - I had to tell him I couldn’t remember. He said he’d love to write about it and I thought it would be a good opportunity to raise awareness so said yes. Here’s a link to the story in case you’re interested in reading it:

Thank you for sharing your story. I was surprised to read in the article that your doctors took you off anti-seizure medication. My husband (who got E in May 2023) is on 3 different anti-seizure medications and the doctor says he will probably be on them for the rest of his life - i.e., the risks of continuing them outweighs the risks of stopping them.

Wishing you all the best in your continued recovery.

I was on a low dose of that particular med (Kepra) and he thought it’d be okay. I’m now on Brivaracetam and Clobazam and things seem to have settled. Not sure if the dose will change but seems okay just now
