15 year old son with newly diagnosed epilepsy, complex partial

[ginwin]

Hi there has this happened to anyone else? I'm really worried at the moment, he has been in hospital for 6 weeks and now they want to move him to an adolescent psychiatric unit.

I'm new to all this so would love some words of wisdom

Thanks

Hi ginwin, Welcome to HealthUnlocked.

I've has Epilepsy for 46 years, mostly Tonic Clonic seizures. There are a lot of members with partial seizures on the Epilepsy Society forum.

Here is a link to the Epilepsy Society Forum forum.epilepsysociety.org.uk/ You can check it out as a guest and if you like what you see and I think you will then you can join.

There are many friendly members that are anxious to help in any way they can. Hope to see you there.

All my best to your son and to yourself. Epilepsy can be hard on the whole family as you no doubt know.

Jake

Hi! It looks like this was posted a long time ago but thought I'd try messaging anyways. I'm kind of new here. My husband used to have complex partial seizures years ago but I haven't seen him have one in about 3 years now so it is possible to get better from it. He's not on any medication now. It's possible he might have simple seizures that we aren't aware of but there hasn't been any big ones we've seen so that's an improvement! 👍🏼
