I've had epilepsy all my life. About 20 years ago I had temporal lobectomy surgery. The past few years seizures are out of control again and it's started affecting my memory worse. They did some tests and I was diagnosed with dementia. I asked what kind of dementia and all they say is it's caused from your surgery. Has anyone had to deal with this? Hopefully not, but I'm just scared and confused.
I'll have to look into this. I get a different diagnosis from each Dr. One told me my memory was gone and my tempro love had disintegrated?? Made no sense
Thank you 😊 you explain it better than the… read more
Why does none of my medications seem to control my seizures . Are there special medications for temporalofrontal seizures ? How should I word this to my provider because he don't believe me .
It took me a while to get the right medications for my seizures. Sometimes you have to go to another doctor and get their opinion.
Anyone with hippocampus sclerosis (atrophy ) and massive frontal lobe lesions left side or have tbi . Do you vomit alot for no apparent reason . Freaks me out
Hi Esti. I know the herendious Feeling. It's happened many times. Puking and massive migraine. It's a horrible thing and lays me out for hours.
My daughter was diagnosed when she was 3 years old with symptomatic focal epilepsy. So far we struggle with education,socialising,self harming and most recent scoliosis. She is 11 now. Waiting to find out results from genetic test.
It shows on MRI, my consultant says its moving a bit with each scan.
Blocking signals in the brain
I have a large bump on my head from a fall as a baby.
Problems started after that.

I have gotten lost, too. And some other stuff you talked about. Hang in and I hope they find some solutions for you, very soon.
It's my first MRI since being diagnosed with epilepsy and so far the results say the only thing they caught was I have no defined hippocampus. I have to wait 2 weeks now for the doctor to tell me what that actually means. Just curious if anyone else has ever had results similar to that. thanks
The MRI requires a thorough explanation by you neurologist Kris
There is also a lot of information on line. I inform myself so I can ask good questions
When I have MRIs to help explain any… read more
