Hello, My daughter has complex partial seizures. She was diagnosised about three years ago with abnormal EEG's but this last year the seizures have been identified as complex partial seizures. Because of them she has also been diagnosed with cognitive dysfunction and headaches. She has tried Neurontin, Keppra, Lamictal, Vimpat and Zonegran. The seizures are still not under control and the doctor says she is a candidate for an implant. I need to do more research on that. Her Doctor recommended that we get in touch with the North Texas Epilepsy Foundation. She got married last month to a very caring, patient young man. They have to live with us due to the amount of care she needs sometimes. It has changed her life completely. She is a very intelligent young lady but the seizures reduce her to about a four year old level at times. She can not comprehend normal conversations at times and speaks ina higher pitch voice. At times she gets very angry which is completely out of character for her. She gets agitated easily and cries very easily. She plays with her fingers or clothes and her whole countenance changes. We tried ativan a few weeks ago to try to stop the constant seizures but it didn't work this time. I heard of diet helping sometimes...her Doctor said to try the Atkins diet for a short time. This is the strangest kind of seizures! She has had Mri's and they can find no cause for why she is having them. She has also had a MRA. Has anyone experienced this kind of seizure to this degree of it being debilitating? Thanks for reading such a long post.
