My neuro says I have ' complex' epilepsy.I was diagnosed 43 years ago My seizures started as grand mals ( no known cause)& I was only on Tegretol .The type & frequency has changed over the last 25 years Fortunately ,no major fits but clusters of absences & partial seizures each week No drug combos have helped so I'm afraid I'm one of the unlucky ones Stay safe x
