hi everyone I’m posting this on behalf of my wife who have been diagnosed for epilepsy since 2015 late.

but the worse thing is. Sometimes when she falls down and then grindering her teeth and after couple minutes she is getting up. But the worse thing she can’t remember things for few days that what happened to her.

also when we got married but because of some security issues I left the country and was living in Aus. We used to chat and texting everyday almost every one - two hours. But since 2020 now she even can’t remember and she is unable to read or write anything. And recently I was helping her to write and practice her name and some other details she is doing it very good but in next day she can’t remember anything. Anyone els here had or have the same problems. I’m struggling with her a lot have to give up with work and looking after her even she is having few medications. But always she is very low mood low energy and tied sleepy. Any recommendation Guys.

much appreciate

God bless everyone

Hi MW93

I'm sorry to hear about the struggles you and your wife are facing.

It would be best to talk to your wife’s epilepsy specialist to see if they can improve her quality of life. They may do a review of her treatment.

has she had full evaluation? She needs all of the scans and tests repeated. Some of what you describe can be due to medication.

When is her next Neurologist appointment? Ask for tests and occupational therapy and cognitive therapy.

Ask about different medications for treatment
