Hi Doris,

Darlene gave you some great info. I've had 2 brain surgeries done to help reduce my sz. on the right temporal lobe and taking vitamin B12 has been great reducing my sz. I also have just started using coconut oil with 100% virgin oil in it and it helps build up ketones in my body which has reduced my sz. greatly.
I've had epilepsy for 42 yrs. now and even after the surgery was done I still have a few and now I have 2 bi lateral lesions on the right and left temporal lobe along with the frontal lobe. I found out this was caused by having so many sz. over the yrs. My Epileptologist wants to start me on medical marijuana if it passes here in NY state so I figured I would give it a try. I have a cousin who has had grand mal sz. since she was in her teens and she is almost 80 yrs. old now so I don't think the epilepsy will shorten a persons life as long as the person takes good care of themselves. Here's wishing you only the best of luck and May God Bless You!

Sue
