A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi guys,
I'm not on any medication at the moment for my tonic clonic and grand mal seizures.
I'm wanting to speak to my Dr about maybe starting Topomax.
Has anyone been on it? Any side effects? Does it help stop seizures?
Did you take topomax in conjunction with other seizure meds or on it's own?

What Does It Take To Get A Service Dog?
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have epilepsy, not bad thank GOD. But one day, if my seizures get bad, we might get a seizure dog. I know the dog and the owner have to train together, but what is the process? How much, etc?

I crave fat. I tried being vegan, didn't work. There's something in animal meat that my brain needs.
