My epileptologist told me I wouldn't know for sure if I had another seizure because it would feel different. He also said there would be feelings I question that are just that...feelings. You can't have brain surgery and feel good as new right away.

I am not eligible for brain surgery because my head injury damaged both sides of my brain. I have been epileptic for 32 hrs. If it was possible for me, I would do it. Make sure all drs. And surgeons have ALL of your info, past and present. Either way you go I wish you the best in my prayers.

Im sure it’s very possible , for any type of change in the brain . Our brain is a sensitive biological computer. So yes, whether it’s good or bad things can change.

For me it had severe seizures and stuttered a lot. Today I still seizure, but they are mild and moderate. I still stutter, but not as much as I did before the brain surgery.

I had a right anterior labectomy 2 years ago. I have intense deja vu since then and started with twitching a few months ago
