Epilepsy is a condition that causes recurring seizures. There are many kinds of seizures, but all involve abnormal electrical activity in the brain that causes an involuntary change in body movement or function, sensation, awareness, or behavior.
Recently, scientists have developed silk implants which when placed in the brain release a specific chemical, adenosine, to help stop the progression of epilepsy.

I have a 24 hours of cluster partial seizures each week There is a pattern For eg I may have this ' spaced out ' day on Saturday for 3 weeks ,then it will move back a day for 2 weeks ,back to Fridays.and so on .When I was working ( I'm retired now) there was 6 Tuesday absences ,it looked as if I didn't want to work on Tuesdays Way past the menopause ( I'm 62). Does anyone else have a pattern similar to this ?
