Hi CVallonio,


I'm so sorry to hear that the Dr. did diagnose you with epilepsy and that you won't be able to drive. I understand very well how you feel because I have never been able to drive in my entire life. I know it's hard to believe but there is a possibility that your sz. may stop and then after a certain time depending on where you live you can get your license back again. I have friends that were able to get their license again after they waited a certain amount of time and no longer had sz. If I may ask did your Dr. tell you what type of sz. you are having? I know many people stop having absence sz. and I also know a few people who have had tonic clonic (grand mal) sz. and then they all stopped after awhile and they are driving now. Have faith and don't let it get to you. I will be praying for you that all goes well and that your sz. will stop and that you will be able to get your license again. Wishing you only the best of luck and May God Bless You!

Sue
