Hi ,I was wondering what contraception do you take with tegretol I've been doing some research on other woman's experiences with other contraceptives and to be honest it's kind of making me not want to go that road but unfortunately I don't have a choice in that matter.
I have endrometris that has spread to my bowels and large intestines some of it was removed from my intestines but my bowels were left alone, so I need to have my periods stopped to stop it from spreading elsewhere as with most… read more

Hello, I have been told having some fruit between meals is not a bad idea. Banana’s have 100% of all the potassium a person needs for one day. Watermelon is 98% water but it is better then candy… read more
I had an appointment this morning any my neurologist told me about Cefaly. I have terrible migraines and its a non medication treatment- both to prevent and rescue. Im doing a little bit of research of my own along with all the information he gave me.
No. How does it work?
What did you do about it???
I used to get back at them with the same dose. Until one day a co-worker was giving me the business and i was focused on my work and didn't notice him. He got so upset he couldn't think of what he was… read more
I was just wondering when you show your video recordings of your seizures to your neurologist or GP do they watch the whole video or just a few seconds of it?
Is it normal for them to not watch it all?
I mean watching only a few seconds isn't going to give you a lot of information .
I don't know your exact situation but I felt I had to record mine. My original doctors thought I just had a sleep disorder. I had to show my new doctor what was happening.

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member Who told you that: "...i do fall on seizures due to choosing to do so"?
Yep it's all your chest muscles tightening and squeezing not a fun experience.
And the neck contractions.
Since my first grand mal 21 years ago, I have been on 11 different meds, had 7 grand mals and have partial complex’s every other day.

I do believe the RNS has helped slow my seizures down. Plus I can send my doctors information everyday from home.
Thanks
To be truthful none as when I looked up to having one of them they cost thousands and thousands of pounds to have and you don’t get to pick the dog they choose it for you and that’s even if you have… read more
