Re: [epilepsy] Re:Complex partial seizures and urinating



When I was having 3-6 complex partials per day prior to my right
temporal lobectomy in march of 2008 I was losing bladder control with
approx 75% of my complex partials. It is due to the loss of
consciousness. I simply (at the age of 36) had begun wearing depends
because prior to even controlling them to 3-6 a day I was having 10-12 a
day and losing bladder control up to 6-8 times a day.
