A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question đź’­

Chronic Migraines
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question đź’­

Hi, I have chronic daily headaches with chronic migraines about twice a week. I have tried most painkillers and recently been to the pain clinic. I am now waiting for a nerve block in the back of my head then acupuncture to follow. I go numb down my left side which the doctor said is a contribution to myofascial. Should acupuncture work as there is risks because of my epilepsy.

Did You Know That Epilepsy Is Classified As A Neurological Disorder Rather Than Mental Illness?
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question đź’­

I certainly did not know this until a few minutes ago --when I was researching what international medical committee decides why the label of "mental illness" is used rather than "mental disability" for those that are not labeled as mental disorders (and I did not even know that the mental disorders were not listed as a sub-group of the overall group known as mental illness rather than being in a separate category.
