Can Fits Be Permanently Cured With Tablet 'eptoin'?
Hi,
when i am 23 i got fits then i visited a neurologist and he wrote for CT-scan in that there is a wording like calcified granuloma in the left parietal context and doctor said no need of any treatment it was healed, and for 7 years i never got any fits and i am very healthy and once again in 2009 my right leg started shaking for around
10-15 seconds and stopped again i went to doctor then he said there is a sign of fits and he prescribed
epsolin er-300 i took this capsule for 2 years and now he said to stop epsolin and take eptoin 50mg decreasing a series of tablets every 2 months, but some times i feel some weakness and some scare at that particular time how can i make my self strong mentally as well as physically please clarify my doubt and my question is will it be permanently cured with this tablets ?

Hi,
As you have already said that the CT scan showed a lesion in your brain, I would suggest you consult with a Neurosurgeon and get a MRI done. It will show the lesion with more clarity and also if it is amenable to surgical treatment. Meanwhile there is no reason why it cannot be tapered on a gradual basis if your neurologist thinks so after a careful neurological examination and a thorough history.
