University and Rehabilitation? (pcs, mtbi)
I recently think I had a non-epileptic
seizure
, but haven’t spoken to my doctor yet. As a sort of metric, I can meet with a friend for maybe 2 or 3 hours before I might start crashing and I need to go home.

Return to driving
I spoke to my oncologist in April 2023 and she advised that providing I have not had a
seizure
or fainting episode in 12 months , then I could return to driving. This is on the basis that I am responding to treatment and my 3 monthly scans are stable. Has anyone been in the same situation as me.

I had I
seizure
in 2010 and my MRI was clear, and I’m pretty sure I didn’t have an EEG. I was put on Epilim chrono 1200 mg and have been
seizure
free since. I went privately so looks like they just signed me off and I never got any NHS follow ups.

question about brain aneurysm and transplant
I had a grandma
seizure
and super low blood pressure they took me off all blood pressure meds I was on. The neurologist think this
seizure
was a one time thing. I got a letter from the transplant team said I need to be clear about the
seizure
from the neurologist.

I lost my licence for a year although I had only had one
seizure
and have had my licence returned now. I do take an anti-convulsant but have never had another
seizure
. Any comments would be gratefully received. Thanks

Update on many PACs and EP visit
I couldn't be bothered to tell him that I am also stressed because my son had a massive
seizure
while driving and my daughter had to steer the car over a 10 foot wall into a ditch and has a minor spinal fracture (New Years Eve day)... So that's that, thoughts on having the ablation??

Cenobamate experience
After an increase in
seizure
frequency my consultant is talking about changing me from keppra + lamotragine to Keppra + Cenobamate. The only review I can find of Cenobamate are on drugs.com. It does tend to attract negative reviews.

Travelling from Ireland to Canada
My adult daughter has been
seizure
free from epilepsy for almost 10 years. This year she is going to Canada from Ireland to visit her sister. She is concerned about the time zone and taking her medication. She generally takes her meds at 8 in the morning and 8 in the evening.

Okay? A touchy question, having had epilepsy for over 50 years, after a person has a seizure, before FULLY conscious can they say 'things'?
My house is semi-detached I sometimes wonder did I shout and scream during a
seizure
?

newly diagnosed - tired and down
I’m off work currently mainly due to extreme tiredness and sleepiness, left sided weakness mostly after a
seizure
which wears off and because my thinking is impacted- it takes me longer to process things.

Hypoparathyroidism Or tumour of some sort? Very high TSH levels.....
I've been on low doses of epilepsy tabs for the last 6 months, not had a single
seizure
for the first 6 months of the year, while Not taking tablets. Had a few seizures over last few months and feeling utterly exhausted and weak.

Side effects of Lamotrigine - too high a dose?
I was
seizure
-free for 4.5 years until I got pregnant, and my medication was doubled as a result. I've now had my baby (almost 6 months ago) and am now wondering if I'm overmedicated.

Fix medicine supply chain or risk patients’ lives, warn charities
They shouldn’t have to worry about switching to a different one that could bring side effects, not keep their seizures under control, or even cause a breakthrough

Thoughts please
As I was coming out of the anaesthetic I had
seizure
-like symptoms which went on for a considerable time and were not controllable with many medications.
