Re: [epilepsy] Re: Lost Memory

 

HI......I just returned from the hospital to be monitored for seizures for a full week.  I have fluid on my frontal lobe along with having seizures and a brain cyst.  I have a hard time remembering things, especially things that I just learn; names, dates, etc.  How is this treated as I'm on Trileptol for seizures.

Hi Rebecca,

The divorce rate for people with epilepsy in the United States is 70%. I learned that on a CURE web site. Many of which are for the same reason as Sam, the epilepsy.
