Hey Guys
Im new to this forum so i dont know if im right in making a new thread here but im just looking for some advice. Im a candadiate or brain surgery onmy left temertal lobe and have had petit mal for the last 15 years. Have seizures maybe once every 5-6 days or more or less depending etc.
Have a pretty good life but i dont drive cos of the seizures(not too bothered about that). On Carbamazepine, Levetivacetam and Topirmate but have tried Lamotrigine and Sodium Valproate.
What Im looking to know is is it worth risking a pretty normal life for what could be a better life or the same life but worse i.e side effects from the surgery.
Also it is worth doing it pending the unsuccessfulness of it considering the forums that are out there.
Any info you have is greatly appreciated.
