Introduction

[Stevent]

Hi was diagnosed with a right frontal lobe brain tumor in 2013. This was removed and now I have scarring on my brain. I suffer from epilepsy and have been medically boarded from employment permenantly. The boarding us due to not only to the epilepsy but other contributing factors which came from the open brain surgery. I am managing my epilepsy by seeing my neurologist at least once a month to ensure all my levels correct. Also my Dr ensures my condition is well treated and under control. Other than this I see 3 other specialists regarding matters pertaining to my brain operation in areas that have been affected and need treatment.

Hi there Stevent

I myself had epilepsy since 2005 Jun. I was this year,17 March 2017, been helped by the best doctors. There are only TWO places in the WHOLE world doing this. One is South Africa and another one in the Northern part of the world, not sure that areas name now. The doctors where I was, is settled in Constantiaberg Mediclinic, Cape Town.

Dr Butler & Dr Melvill. I would suggest to rather go to them if you can. They will ALWAYS try to find a way to help you, no matter what. I was in the hospital for 29 days so that they can find out where and what was triggering my epilepsy. There was also a baby of round about 11 months old that they could help and had a huge success with it. There was also a child of 15 years old that sometimes got up to 60 seizures/fits in one night! The doctors could and did also help him. He is today way better and can do more stuff than ever before. There was also other patients that they could help after one day, depending on the amount of info they got from the scanners and monitoring systems.

Since 1999 these two doctors had, had round about 15 000 patients. Not all of them had gotten a surgery but all of them was helped and are way much better than ever before with their seizures. I personally also know of a person that was heald through a diet plan they had given her.

I hope this gave you some hope and something to look forward to and may our Lord help you through everything.

Enjoy your night/day

Hermie
