New here


I just found this forum, tonight, and am so happy to have found it.

I'm 50 years old and was just diagnosed this past April with epilepsy. My seizures are simple partial seizures, so I'm always aware of what's going on when I have a seizure. I'm taking Keppra, which so far is working well to control the seizures.

Looking forward to getting to know everyone.

Smile Hi homeschoolmom


I developed complex partial seizures when I was 46 years old. No fun, is it?
But I learned to live with it.
