Head Pains And Epilepsy
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I do not experience migraines and never have. However, I do get shooting pains in my temples every so often. The only way that I can describe them is like how I would imagine it feels to have someone ram a red hot poker into my temple. Sometimes the left side, sometimes the right side and occasionally both sides at once. They don’t last long but are very painful and the doctors have never been able to explain why I get them.

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member. Time for a new venue. We are the Masters of our own Conditions. When we begin to demand too much from our Medical Community, they become testy and no longer desire to treat. It's not nice to scold the doctors yet when they do not do their job what are we to do? The field Neurology is in a ground breaking stigma. Epilepsy is an elusive territory as much as is Mental Health. Soon they will find that much of mental illness is due to the circuitry in the Brain can. Your tumor(?s) relate to Epilepsy directly. How can they not. In a simple world, the poker pains poke at the tumor which create an impasse for the hormonal flow through the neural passage. Danger rests in removing the tumor. Seek out ways to reduce the tumor.
