Yes, memory loss is common with Epileptics, but it is SOOO frustrating trying to get that through to people who don't have a clue or won't learn about Epilepsy!!!

Yes. I have very bad short term memory loss, while I can remember some things that happened years ago

Thanks for your advice. I am exactly the same as the advisor who has problems remembering short term but can remember some long term events. Will certainly go back to My Medical advisor to seek their advice

I've had focal/partial epilepsy since 2007. The latest symptom is memory loss which has been going on since last February. My neurologist is very concerned and prescribed xcoprie. So I understand now that memory loss is a side effect of seizures. If you or anyone can offer me more insight into this issue, I would highly appreciate it.

Any issue dealing with memory is common with Epilepsy
