What Is The Treatment For Convulsive Seizures And Dementia?
My friend age 66 began having non convulsive seizures 2 years ago. She says she has epelipsy and is taking medication. The concern is that she may be suffering from dementia as her close friends have noted that she has aggressive outbursts and she feels persecuted. How can I help her?
