Suggest Remedy For Mental Health Problem
I am partial complex epileptic and I am 70 and I had a sezure during the day at a restaurant I frequent. I have amnesia regarding that incident and over past twenty years I have had several in bed and one other one while I was at adenny s restaurant,with a business friend,in the morning. I lost short term memory and one other thing I always pee in my pants. in total 4-5 seizures over 7-8 yrs. does that make me an epileptic and will I be cured by taking better care of myself. my neurologist say I have slight abnormal eletrcal brain activity in one of my lobs. is this really true?

hi dear,
you have epilepsy and for that you must take treatment.
as with every episode it affects your memory some what.
it is the hyperactivity in your brain which leads to seizure episode.
for epilepsy you must take medication for seizure free three years continuous .
there is no other treatment for epilepsy.
consult neurologist for further detail and treatment.
Thank you
