Hello I have been on limictal and vimpat since june 21, 2010. I am a cadidate for a temporal lobe lobotomy. I have noticed that if I keep away from things that I know cause my seizures. For me that is lack of sleep and over exertion in the heat the meds work really well. I do not want the surgery as long I keep doing as well as I have been. My concern is that I am a firefighter, but have been working in an office job since seizures started and I have not been able to drive. Long story short I will begin to drive in 3 weeks. My Chiefs wants to keep me in the office but is concerned that when city council knows I can drive may want me back in station life. Which of course cause the two biggest stressors to my seizures, lack of sleep and working in the heat. Has anyone gotten a letter from their doctor for work stating that they avoid things that can cause the seizures. Any advise is appreciated.
