Mine cant be cured. No surgery available for my type of epilepsy 😞

My auras are seeing everything in purple. Im seldom able to vocalise whats going to happen before transitioning into a tonic clonic seizure. It's terrifying 😞

Salamalaykum Dr. Please let me know if you do try to Australia? I have epilepsy since 13 years old. I am tired myself because the pain is unbearable. I don’t think I am on right medication and I don’t want die because I have 10 kid and she needs me. At the moment I am taking lamotrigine but still having seizures and unexplainable feeling and smell which is making my life difficult to live. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

I am 41 and have been having grand Mal seizures since I was 12. I get auras and I get the seizures at bedtimes and now I get the partial seizures random times during the day. Not everyday but every month. I’ve had multiple brain surgeries and taken multiple different medications that have only made me get more seizures. No doctor has been able to help me. I have actually had less seizures now that I’m not on medication but still have them. I don’t drive or work. It’s not an easy life..

is there a drugs for epilepsy... not anti drugs

Hi doc ., they couldn't diagnose what is the issue for me I'm having symptoms like blurring of vision followed by double vision then getting confused for 5 to 10 mins some times I may feel sharp pain aggravating from any part of the body ...

It happened to me, run out for 3 days. And I end up at the ER 💊💊

Zonegran is it necessary for as well isn’t it?

what is the substitue of Gardenal because Gardenal is habituated

Ive been on keppra after my ruptured aneurysm. Started at 1500mg a day and it’s been 8 years and i’m at 2500mg… longest i’ve been without a seizure is 2 years. I have anger issues and mood swings once in a while.. I have a lot more self control than I did 8 years ago lol. I have experienced mental thoughts that make me see things as they are but I get anxiety and realize how simple we all are. It’s interesting in pros and cons.. I can say that over 8 years I believe I had about 15 seizures at most. Some years I had 1 and some years I had 2 or 3 but that was when I was taking less than 2000mg.

I have FND and my seizures can come on quickly and are not connected to emotions. It really annoys me that people say they are always connected to emotions because in my case they are not. Mine are when I am tired, ill or hormonal cycle linked. Instead my doctors just tell me not to get stressed when it is nothing to do with it!

No I stopped drinking Alcohol & it NEVER helped. Its about relaxing your body & mind that stops them

Thank you so much. It helps a lot

My daughter was weaned off meds (she had absence seizures) 6 months later I started seeing activity again. They did an EEG, they found she had developed multiple types of epilepsy that she didn't have before 😢

I started having my seizures when I was 17 years old. I had my first seizure when my menstrual period started. Can my menstrual period be a reason my seizures started?

Hello I take Keppra valproare 7.5ml for me seizures. Does Keppra cause me to be violent? I was told that I get violent at times when I have a seizure.

My Dr gave me keppra knowing I had depression, it was awful! I ended up in hospital. I am now on oxcarbazapine which is fine but I’m very tired all the time . 🙏🏼

The drs keep saying it’s in my head

Dr ur a magician I suffer from seziors getting way worse now I have a emergency sezior medicine. Called diistat

I use natural items now, so I went from 6 meds to 3. I'm much better now. I use turmeric. It's good for many health conditions.

Stop the worthless medicine go on keto or carnivore diets and stop all seizures

But we are living in India Poor Country.. The Latest tecnology will come here when we die. Brain sergury is too much expensive.

Probably one of the most insightful videos about this topic, as an epileptic myself and a biomedical scientist. I've been trying to find a concise but full of enough knowledge and in a video easier format but I couldn't ever find it all these years to describe mine and what I was suffering with. I had to be my own advocate (for longer than actually necessary; my medical journey has not been the best and having a medical background doesn't necessarily help you get help more easily than one might think) but I digress. I went and read through so many articles and journals and try to find epilepsy ones to describe what was happening to me and pinpoint the brain location where they were happening, based on the auras I was getting. Wasn't til last year after pushing for over 11 years and being in an induced coma from status epilepticus that I required after that to go to a physical therapy and occupational therapy rehab hospital for months on end (and that's a whole nother can of worms I rather not discuss) that I went to a epilepsy centre, met lovely people, was there for a month Vs 2 weeks as initially planned, ended up in HDU 2x one time with a dislocated shoulder from the seizure, after being in status again but they managed to abort the seizure thank god, and sleep deprived for almost 5 days straight they finally saw the interictal spike and wave discharges coming from my frontal to temporal and parietal lobe spreading in my brain and being picked up on the EEG so right now, yeah it's been hard, first being ignored and mistreated for being thought of having psychogenic seizures, (despite them knowing the first seizures i had was when i was 5-6 months old and then from around 1 and 1/2 or 2 and 1/2 had grand mal seizures according to my parents and grandparents (my grandma is a nurse and i spent a lot of time with her), but I wasn't and not from or born in scotland, uk so, despite me describing everything correctly, they'd ignore everything i said. Turned out to be epilepsy in the end. Did it surprise me when I got the news from the epilepsy specialist centre? I was referred from that god awful neurologist and public hospital as most are publicly funded (I before worked in, resigned last year, also but due to my own experiences the morals of it not adding up and my own health and how I was treated as a patient I couldn't bare to work there anymore and my own health being affected)I had to fight so much just to be treated right? Die it surprise me when epilepsy centre told me I was suffering from epilepsy when I knew it all along? No. Epilepsy is very diverse in terms of seizures and what happened to me was as you said the area wasnt big enough to detect the seizures by scalp EEG; it was after almost 5 days and nights sleep deprived non stop, that the epileptic discharges started becoming greater/bigger, spreading over my brain and more apparent in the EEG I was wearing (and they have CCTV in every room there) and thankfully finally detected. Shouldn't have taken years to be diagnosed, as I advocated myself for over a decade but to almost no avail and when I had seizures hospital staff would look at me weirdly/ in disgust or as if I was faking them when I came round and speak with me in such a...an awful way and having that label of psychogenic seizures (despite being incorrect and to this day in my file) they would disregard and when I'd come around some would be laughing and scream at me and then leave me in the bathroom floor and I realised I fell when I was in bathroom from a seizure and had blood in my head and bit my tongue and was covered in urine and in the bacteria filled hospital bathroom floor and a few of them grabbed me and shook me in a&e (but not in a way to see if you react and ok, like in a bully type of way and screaming snap out of it you're not having a seizure, stop with this behaviour and they left serious marks and bruises in my body when shaking me or grabbing me, and mind you I just lost consciousness due to an actual epileptic seizure and already disoriented and trying to get my bearings and that's what I would wake up to) as I suffered a lot and needless to say i have a distinct fear of those people and hospital and going there and unfortunately its the only one where i live in (im hoping to get enough money to fund my passion for cancer research and move the hell away from here), (and to this day still) and I lost cognitively some art of brain function due to being in status a couple of times. So yes I have genetic generalised left mesial frontal lobe epilepsy. I'm now on Keppra & Cenobamate (xcopri or ontozry if you're in the UK) So there's that. Thank you for your work as always Dr Omar. Sorry for any typos. ~ M

Hi doc my daughter is eighth and gets febrile seizure episodes whenever she gets fever. Do you think its normal to have it even after 5 years of age,? Or is it developing to epilepsy?

Hi I get my blood get tested everyday because I am per diabetic. They told me that when my sugar is high I will have a seizure or I'm able to stop a seizure. Can my sugar level cause me to have a seizure? I'm watching from Fayetteville N.C.

So, I’m still on keppra, switching my depakote to Braviact. I guess my question is are keppra and briviact compatible? This was at the recommendation of my neurologist due to depakote not metabolizing in my blood correctly.

Wow that’s crazy I thought it was just me….ive had epilepsy since I was 4 but time after time my memory got worse but if someone brings up what happened it’ll hit my memory again….its nothing I can do to really help it sadly….some meds help but not that much for me idk y

Hi I take to my neurologist about vitamins D 500-2000iu D6 pyridoxine Folic Acid 1-4mg Omega fish oil cbd oil. He didn't help me at all. He said vitamins don't help seizures. What CBD oil help for absent generalized seizures? I'm watching from the Fayetteville nc.

What about sudden anger? I took care of a man that was admitted to a psych ward over angry bursts. He was evaluated by neurology and had a brain tumor. Can this be caused by small or larger strokes too?

what do i do if i lose sight after my seizures

there is a difference between treatment and having a cure. Medications can control seizures, but not stop the seizures entirely. In some cases, medications can stop the seizures all together. In other cases, medications can help with other factors such as how long the seizures last, how serious they are, what kind of seizures they had, how often it occurs.

I used valporic medicine but I was cured after used that medicine.Can I use ayurvedic epilepsy related medicine now? actually since some days I don't feel cure

I was just diagnosed with epilepsy yesterday and I thought for so long that I would pass in my sleep if I had a seizure during it and was so so scared

It happened to my son and the doctor told us to give him iron and it helped alot

I live with epilepsy all my life I have been through two brain surgeries & four surgeries for the VNS & my seizures still have not stopped I get stressed or angry about something that's when the seizures hit me I have been bounced around on meds & I'm at the point in life I just want nothing to do with medicine. Can a person still have the lazer brain surgery if you already have been through two brain surgeries in the past ???

Can ear effection spark seizure ?

❤

Very well explained 😻👍

Dude, what about the ketogenic diet? That beats brain surgery any day. Have you seen the movie "First Do No Harm"?

Tegretol CAUSED Myoclonic Seizures in ME. IT was prescribed for Trigeminal Nerve Pain in 2015 by a Max Fac. But he did NOT explain the Treatment Rationale behind his Prescription, JUST GAVE ME A Script Like I WAS A DUMB PATIENT who couldn't comprehend noffink with Big words in it. So when the myoclonus exacerbated. I freaked out like I was some strange anomaly. I Figure he wouldn't have known I can use the Word. ANOMALY). Knowledge is Power and he didn't grace ME his patient with Informed Knowledge. I felt very disrespected. And thus I have only yesterday begun Rivotril for Myoclonus. I don't TRUST ANYONE EXCEPT MYSELF ANYMORE. What country are you in Doctor? You seem like a nice humanistic chap who wouldn't Hate me or Profile me. FLORIDA..? Well if its a Hot humid Day youll see my Myoclonus at WARP Speed. MARYLAND..? Even if its snowing Outside, if the Consultation room is Hot you'll see my Seizures at WARP speed too. In Melbourne Australia at an Italian restaurant for my Mothers Memorial..? My Whole Family saw THEM manifesting in me. And no one gave a Red Hot Damn. (Only my mother in Heaven)

I have seizures when waking up. Sometimes I can stop it. Its gotten so bad I dislocated my right sboulder 5 times over them! What sucks is im aware the whole time. It feels like im suffocating and im making weird noises. In the coming down fase, I hear myself nake a snoring like sound at 100 volume. Can anyone else relate? Its awful

Is Catamenial Epilepsy often misdiagnosed as FND. My seizures are always triggered by my hormonal cycle and a lack of sleep and infection also adds to the risk. I have been told I have FND though.

Gardenal is habitual you know better than me. Long time I consume Gardenal ( Phenobarbeton) I can't leave Gardenal.. If I leave gardenal after 5/6 months seizeure came back. Now I am 59.

I literally was trying to talk to my mom, and I could not speak any words the other day. I have had issues a lot lately with word formation. I have had full shaking seizures since 2012. In 2016, I had a really bad one and was paddled back to life. I have had issues obtaining medical records. This hospital put me on seizure meds. I was seeing a Nero doctor who left the facility I was going to they then didn't believe I had epilepsy and forced me to go to a 5 day study and they say that there was no correlation in the eeg that I have epilepsy now refused to continue to prescribe me my seizure medicine. Even though I had another full shaking seizure on December 25, 2024 due to forgetting to take my morning medicine. I have seizures when I do not take my medicine. I do not know what to do I even have the data and videos from the 5 day study showing that I did indeed have 3 shaking seizures which my mom had to make sure I was OK the facility didn't help me at all and instead said I didn't have anything. You have great information in your videos I really need help.

All please try cbd oil, it is working for me

Dr Danoun I have absent generalized seizures. I started having my seizures when I was 17 years old. They started when my seizure when my menstrual period started. Can my menstrual period started my seizures? I take Keppra valproare 7.5ml. Can taking Keppra cause me to be violent? I was told I get violent sometimes when I have a seizure. I have a aura when I feel like I'm about to have a seizure. My aura are when my hands shake. My heart will start beating fast. My legs start jumping. I feel like deja view. I can stop my seizures when I lay down and plug my ears and cover my eyes and make sure I don't hear anything. And I has to be dark in my room. I will lay down or take a nap. Then when I wake up I feel fine. I had a seizure surgery. I have a vegal nerve stimulator. It's not help me get my seizures under control. Or my meds I read where vitamins would help me. Vitamins D 500-2000iu, Folic Acid 1-4mg,Vitamin D6 pyridoxine,Omega 3 fish oil, CBD oil, my diet, magnesium deficiency 300-310 for me do you think vitamins will help me?

Would this be good for chronic tension headaches ?
