RE: [epilepsy] Re: New Here



Hi Tammy

Thanks for the warm welcome, the same applies, I enjoy
chatting to people, either by e-mail or face to face, I just
like meeting people. I suppose it's good because life is
just too short as it is.

I have only been a member of this group for 24 hours and I'm
finding it very interesting.

Take care all.


Regards

Adrien

Adrien,

Welcome to the group. I have complex partial seizures that I
have had for about 40 years now.They were from a head injury
when I was a baby.My seizures are not controlled. I had
surgery back in 2004, but even though it made them a lot
better than they used to be, I still have them. Stress and
hormones seem to play a big part in the ones I have now.
There is plenty of information and friends here. If I can
help in any way, write anytime.Take care.

Tammy
