You might want to contact epilepsyfoundation.org for help finding a lawyer, I believe that they do have some resources.

Hi Hollywood! Don't have any info on Dilantin or getting on disability. But this site is really friendly. Feel free to ask any questions. There's bound to be someone here who can give you info.

Smile Hi


To My New Warm,and Friendly Friends,I Thank you All for your support.I will check out the site,Brain,I always found Disclosure to be a stubbling block in anywork place,that if you dont tell,your employer of youe Medical situation then buy law they dont have to pay for your Medical Bills,so that why I am going for disability ,turned down twice,I give up,they say its comin thing to be turned down twice,And social Security has a blue book that you have to have so many seizures a week,guess they rather have a guy like me on the road,gave up Trucking,dont want to hurt anybody out there or my self ,Love You Guys Drory
