What Is The Remedy For Epilepsy When On Various Medications?
No neurologist has been able to help me with my medical condition generalised tonic clonic epilepsy that began at the age of 13. Started by only having seizures far apart but always within 20minutes upon wakening. Over the past few years its worsened severely even though all top neurologists have tried for an answer. I rather feel like a guinea pig with all the drugs I have been given and lost all opportunity to have a positive and real life even with my intelligence, it is avoided because of the discrimination of this condition.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand your worry, if this is grandmal seizure then you have to take the medicine for long time, the dose of antiepileptic drugs needs to be increased time to time according to the attack of seizure, you have to keep the patience, some time you have to take the medicine for life time, if you are lucky then the chances of natural remission is there, take care and stop worrying, have good day.
