Recently I have started having hot flashes and I am pretty sure I am starting menopause . I am under an immense amount of stress (my son and my father were diagnosed with cancer last year, my son is now in remission. My father is not doing well). But I am wondering if anyone else noticed a worsening of seizures due to menopause? I went like three days of having pretty consistent hot flashes and tiny seizures
I am fighting through them doctors have no more they can do but try vns as I have uncontrolled epilepsy even on meds I get no aura I am grateful for every day I have and live life to the fullest as I can
Nice to meet you. I hope the best for you +
I became pre menopausal last year at 42 and started getting different seizures plus if I don't get cool fast enough if I start to overheat, I have a seizure. OB said no to start hormone therapy as my cycles are regular. 🤷♀️

I am a 42 year old epileptic too and my seizures have never been controlled either
Oh that is terrible. Fingers crossed that the meds help me. I hope you are doing well now!🙂
