Neurologist Dr. Shiva Kumar R's  Response
Thanks for using healthcaremagic. Epilepsy and pregnancy is an issue which needs to be tackled carefully. Before a person with epilepsy gets married or pregnant one has to be counselled regarding the complications and the course of epilepsy. Meet a Neurologist and get your self started on Folic acid and discusss about the chances of complications both to the mother and baby. One important thing is do not stop the tablets for epilepsy and avoid sleep deprivation. Bye
