I'd love to hear from others with epilepsy. It would be nice to speak with others who feel what I do. This page is very useful, but I have recently heard of a new treatment called a ketogenic diet and can not get any specifics on what it is and what foods you have to eat. I am going to have a Right Temporal Lobectomy in December or January and would like to hear of some experiences from people who have had brain surgery. My son was diagnosed with epilepsy in 1980 at 11 yrs old.
Treatment is tegratol and has been fairly successful until recently.
Do you deal with many referrals from Canada. I need any information on Landau-Kleffner syndrome. I am working with a 5 year old female. I am 21 years old and I have diagnosed with epilepsy for the past 8 years. I have seizure-free for almost 5 years now.
