Marty,
I was turned down for insurance years ago. It wasn't whether I had seizures
or not, but the kinds of medicine I was on. They did a swab test on my
mouth, and when they got the results back said I was not eligible for their
life insurance. I got it from a different company though. They must of
thought I was a dope head or something. I know it must be hard to get
though. Take care.
