Re: [epilepsy] surgery

 

Hi James,
I had my surgery (left temporal lobectomy) 8 months ago at the Medical College of Georgia in Augusta, Ga.  I had to go through about six months of candidate testing before the surgery (WADA angiogram, neuropsychological evaluation, PET scan, MRIs, Video EEGs, depth electrodes, grid electrodes, etc).  The whole process is explained in full detail (even pictures) on the MCG epilepsy surgery website... http://www.mcg.edu/som/neurosurgery/Clinical%20Programs/epilsurg.htm
 
There's lots of info here too...
http://www.epilepsy.com/EPILEPSY/surgery

This website has a lot of detailed info, but it's in "professional" terminology.  Use the orange links to the right side of this webpage as a guide.
http://professionals.epilepsy.com/page/surgery.html
 
Hope this helps,
Tristin :)

Excuse me,

I have had epilepsy (grand mall) for about 15 years now and I keep hearing about surgery to stop epilepsy or seizure from occuring.  Can you tell me anything about this or maybe some information online I can read through to get a better understanding of this surgery?

Sincerely,

James M. McGrenera

Congratulations Brian! My surgery was only 8 months ago. I've been

seizure-free since! Hopefully I can go 10 years without a seizure too.

Tristin :)
