I have an idea for a new program called Epilepsy Dating. Why not create a program so single epileptic members can meet others? They can search to meet a person of the same or oposite sex, provide a profile , photo and message. Many epileptic members have a hard time living alone.
I couldn’t even turn on zoom.
It's a little confusing that the doctor suggested 4 treatment options and the first and second one just got denied by my insurance. I know the next request will be 2 pills a day so will see how that request goes. At least this clinic is handling the request with my insurance company. The previous one, I had to do everything. Sure makes it not as stressful even though the have gotten denied so far.
I paid sometimes over $800 for Vimpat!

I hope that helps. Just ask if you have any questions

Hello, I was wondering if there is a way that I can have a doctor help my son so he can try epidolex, many seizure medications make him feel sick due to a genetic disorder he has, but a few neurologists I have asked often dismiss epidolex or say he doesn't have the type of seizure that it helps. thanks for reading this, my family and I greatly appreciate your time and concern.

Travelling with epilepsy. Any tips, suggestions on types of holidays like cruises? How do you go with travel insurance? Also how do you go with traveling when you can’t drive?
When I travelled to Europe over ten years ago (I didn’t travel on my own and I would advise to travel with another person/s)
I had a letter from my doctor on hand at all times which listed my… read more
My epilepsy is due to a TBI, which involved facial trauma. I'm sure that has contributed to it. I do wonder if epilepsy plays a role.
Teeth grinding has always been part of my act. Don't worry, things could be much worse...
I'm on levetiracetam and depakote, I'm ok with those, but what are your thoughts?
I take genetic plus any questions ask your neurologist

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member good deal!!
I'm only just over a year of having epilepsy and I have a family member who wants to buy me a watch that detects seizures and she says lets people know you are having them. I guess insurance covers some of the cost? Anyone try one before? any luck? thanks
I have a sense 7 watch it is not for seizures but it will keep track of 02 and heart rate for me
Trying to find help and resources for repairing my teeth that I’ve broken due to all my seizures. Dentist gave me an estimate of four thousand! I’m beginning to feel really frustrated at the lack of dental coverage someone with epilepsy has in the state of California! 😔 I don’t understand why the damage and injuries from a seizure are not covered with the same insurance that’s providing my medication, or providing my disability, whichever the case you would think they go hand-in-hand, right?
When it comes to medical coverage/treatment for seizures, the medical they provide basically only covers assistance on repair or cure, not replace. Teeth are the only part of the body that cannot… read more
