I submitted a reasonable accommodation request on 10/18/22 asking that my job give me 12 hours off of work, specifically during the hours of 7pm to 7am, due to the fact that I must wake up at 6am to get my children ready for school. Also to see to it that I may get enough sleep, because the recommended amount of sleep for someone with my disability is 8-10 hours of continuous sleep per night. My boss agreed to accommodate my request for one week only: 10/31-11/05/22, even though I… read more

I’ve had epilepsy since the age of 2. I’m now close to 50 yrs. Of age
Surgery may be an option but I am very nervous about it. Any information you can share will be appreciated.
Something some said got to me. Not all forms of epilepsy make tou loose consciensness. I am always alart and and aware of several of my triggers. My sezuires are either absent, mind staring or simple/conplex jerks (like a cold chill).
I have complex partial seizures. My neurologist and I have talked about my license as I have brought it up. He sees no reason to revoke my license and my diagnosis does not require them to be.
Anyone else still have their license?
I still have mine but I'm not allowed to drive for 6 months after I've had a sz. Just had a major one that sent me to the hospital and required stitches above my right eye.
My son wants to stop taking his anti-seizure medications that he's been on since he was 13 years old he is now 22 he is an adult so I'm looking for an alternative to this option
He needs to seek the advice of a his neurologist, if he agrees with your sons decesion he will give your son a plan to reduce the meds gradually then eventually stop them
It's not a pleasant… read more
