Thanks Tattoo

I have had epilepsy for 39 years and tried a 10 different drugs. Like I said had thought early on my seizures were controlled, but much denial was being played out. Now do work with an epileptologist have for 4 years, actually found out the cause of my seizures after having epilepsy for 35 years which kind of blew me away.
Since have tried 6 of those 10 drugs and am on three yet still have seizures. Also had a VNS implanted and the seizures increased by three fold. so had to have it turned off and eventually removed.
Am not a candidate for brain surgery and a goodthing, as not my thing.
Have even tried non medical alternatives to help and showed little improvement.

So Here I am and just trying to do what I can to accept my situation knowing it could be much worse. Be grateful for all I do and can continue to do.
