Default Getting off meds

I was "retired" from the military due to a stroke and have a siezure disorder resulting from it. If I can go so many years without medication and siezures I can get back in. Does this seem like a very hopeful result? Has anybody had positive results post stroke without meds for siezures? Over two years I've had a combined 2 grand maul and about 3 focal siezures. One of the grand mauls were at the time of my stroke. After a year of being on meds I tried going without. I went 5 months siezure free without meds, but then my dr convinced me to start taking them again. Shortly thereafter I had my next grand maul. I've gained back full function since the stroke, thanks to being soo young when it happened. This is my one hang-up. Any info and hope would be great.
