Default Porkette...? for you...

I noticed in another post, you talked about having surgery for your seizures as well as all the other test i.e. VEEG and wada testing.

My father had surgery done in April of 2007. He was having anywhere between 15-30 seizures a day/night. We had all the other test done. They "decided" which side of the brain the seizures were coming from and preformed the frontal lobectomy. However, he has had 2 seizures since then and his memory loss has increased so much that I am really concerned. I know the 2 seizures down from what he was having is not bad, I just wasn't sure whether the surgery was a sure fire thing or just something that decreases seizure activity.

What has your experience been? Did you have the same or similiar surgery as my father? Do you have memory problems (before and after surgery)? How are you doing now? How long has it been since your surgery?

I hope you are doing better and that life isn't giving you a hard time. Know that I am thinking of you and sending best wishes your way.
