Hi Nelson
When we fly or go on holiday we have to have travel
insurance, because of our epilepsy and in my case
encephalitis and other disabilities, it is very hard to find
companies that will give us the insurance, in some cases it
can be very expensive.
Regards
Adrien

It's been a few-years now - since it started.
thou I have friends with epilepsy tell-me: she heard, if you
fly or cross an ocean, it won't happen again"
everyone is different: thou: I had Doctors ask-me if I am
single or married?
the more in a relationship - it might help, the more you
entertain the epilepsy just in a possitive state of mind: it
won't happen as much.
but once it starts: we have it - till death...
just take your medication'
and be careful...

Hi, all. I was diagnosed with epilepsy when I was 4 years
old. I've had it for 39 years now (so you can guess how old
I am). Nobody knows how it started. Mom has a theory that
it was because she was in labor for 27 hours with me. I
don't know if that was the case, though. Even if it was,
why would it take so long to manifest itself? Anyway, my
seizures are under control with medication. I haven't had
one in almost a year. I've also figured out one of my
triggers: dehydration. I was mowing the ditch in my front
yard a few years ago, and I started seeing spots in front of
my eyes. So I sat down in the ditch and had a seizure.
That, along with a couple of times during a martial arts
class, helped me figure it out. Now I'm careful to make
sure I have enough water and take breaks if I'm doing a lot
of work.
