[epilepsy] Re: change of medicatio

 



Doris,

I have pretty much given up hope of ever driving again. I have had epilepsy for five (?) years now, and have had seizures every four months like clockwork. The minimum for freedom from seizures here in VA is six months.

I am moving back to NJ in a few months where the minimum period for freedom from seizures is 1 YEAR, but that is where I grew up and I miss my friends up there.
