What would a service dog do? My husband drives me to work and I can work full time as an admin and I can walk and climb stairs, etc. Is there a service that can take you to appts and shopping (Heaven forbid something happens to my husband)

Well I have had szs all my life, so I never drove. I take buses, walk or fly or get a ride from a friend. I will not lie, it's a hard life having ep. I just tell people to try and get something good from it. I say I have ep, but it doesn't have me. I worked for years but don't anymore.
Have you thought of getting a service dog? They are a great help. You can find alot of information here, so just keep asking questions. Try not to be a shut in like some are, as that does not help you in the long run. We do get mad and depressed at times, but so do other people.
Take care,
Terri

She said that noise induced migraines could be silent seizures. I have to go to a driving rehab to re apply for my license and I have to get retested again. I miss my old life and my freedom of driving. I am just mad, frustrated and very depressed.
