Welcome Andreas! Congratulations on your seizure control, and Happy Easter! Feel free to ask any questions, or if you ever need to just vent, we're good at listening too. Check out the epilepsy 101 thread. It gives some good info on epilepsy. Happy Easter!

Welcome to our house. It is filled with people from all over the world with all sorts of Epilepsy. Please feel welcome here. Even though you do not lose conciousness during your seizures, when they impact your life as much as yours have, you deserve some extra support.

I am glad you have found someone to share your life with. Someone close to support you sure helps. I know I have leaned on my wife many, many times over the last 26 years.

Keep us up to date on how you are doing. You could also fill us in on your country's driving laws for epilepsy. Here in the USA, the laws vary by state.

Happy Easter to you too (even if I am a little late).

Welcome Andreas

Make yourself at home, we are a friendly group. Congradulations on the license. I know what that feels like!

Smile hi !


nice to meet you, and glad you're here!

Hopefully you had an "eggstra" Happy Easter! (sorry, had to do it). I'm very happy you're having such success with your seizures! That is wonderful!

What are the driving laws like in Sweden? I've always wanted to drive in Europe....
