Re-occur? |

| As it was explained to me, everyone has a seizure threshold. Folks diagnosed with epilepsy just happen to have a seizure threshold that is lower than normal. Seizure patterns (or perhaps the seizure threshold) can change. I don't know why or how, but I know it has happened with Stacy and others. I'd characterize your lack of seizures to a successful raising of the threshold. Still, I'd imagine that extreme conditions could cause it to lower again (hormone imbalances such as periods/pregnancy/menopause, sleep deprivation, drugs, etc.).

epolepsy Your doctor is right. Puberty can really mess a lot your system. Keep your thersh hold up make it past puperty age 20 and it probobly will not come backt. The longer you can go with out a seizer the less chance of it coming back so contuinue to keep your self in good shape but don't over do it. goodluck |

| ok thanks, yup i'm not thinking its gone. I am keeping an open mind and if it comes back then it does. I am 15 now...so hopefully it won't come back. I kinda of want it to in a stupid way, as it felt part of me. I dont know. it's hard to explain. but i dont really want it. |

| Yes, it can - in my case after full 20 years without one single seizure (without anti-epileptic drug). |

| It can, as you have already read, but not always, it is not a rule. In my case it did, but the doctor said it can be back in a 5% people who had epilepsy being a child. I was 20 when it came back. Take care. |
