Hello,
Thanks for the query
I understand your concern
Please note that the treatment of seizures/epilepsy depends upon the diagnosis and exact classification of the type of epilepsy. This is done by EEG and/MRI scan of the brain. Some patients can have non-epileptic seizures and some have both. These patients can be diagnosed by long term VEEG. Once the diagnosis is achieved, treatment becomes easy. I agree that she has post-trauma, but I will not like to miss anything treatable in her case. I suggest you to XXXXXXX an Epilepsy expert in your local area who will help you through a detailed clinical interview and VEEG tests. If there are evidence of both, the management will be entirely different. Further the exact selection of drug will depend upon the classification of the problem. If there is no evidence of epilepsy after evaluation, dilantin may be stopped.
Hope this helps
Please let me know in case you need any help
Best wishes
