OMG...Where in NJ did U reside? I live in Ewing, was born and raised in
Hazlet. I have been having seizures since November, 2010 but have been seizure
free for two months so in 6 months I can re apply to drive again. What meds are
you on? I'm on Depakote but getting off from bad side affects, going on a
transition drug neuroten and then will go on Lamictal. Do you have bad
headaches too? I'm on alot of headache meds.

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.
