I don't know if your seizures are during the day or when asleep.
If by chance, they are just nocturnal, you can get your license
in most states. I had been in NY and I am now in NC, and I have
full license since seizures are just when asleep. Hope all goes
super positive for you real soon so this pressure is removed.
Take care. Doris

I really miss the freedom do go and do whatever and whenever i feel like it. During the time that I was fortunate enough to have a license my reaction time was pretty slow due to my medications. I took and am still taking Dilantin, Depakote and Clonazepam.

Many wonderful relationships would have worked had I only been able to drive. I respect my families wishes because they do not want me to drive again, but I am getting fed up with not being able to drive and want to just go against my families wishes on this matter.
