That is the best way to deal with it. What do You think neurologists do? They keep learning more all the time. A few years ago they were not calling seizures the same things they are today. Why-they kept studying and learned more, and still do. Some of the test equipment they use now did not exist 5-10 years ago. The Depth Electrode Test, I don't think Dr.s even had any idea that would exist. I have had this problem for over 45 years. It has stopped me from doing something's that is because of the laws that exist. I went to college and grad school. You can also. You just can't give up on anything You start.
