    Newbie here...(focal onset epilepsy) looking to chat

    Hi everyone! I was diagnosed with focal onset epilepsy about 3-4 months ago after a year of being told I had panic attacks/anxiety disorders...so a little bit of a relief strangely enough. I have simple partial seizures which involve an epigastric rise (I believe thats what they are called)...

    Intro post

    Simple Partial Seizures, getting a second opinion

    Hi, new to this too! Joined today because I need some support because my anger is too intense at losing my driver's license and the poor treatment by my ex-neurologist. I'm not sure if I'm correctly diagnosed as my experience with the neurologist and his PA has been terrible but that's going to...
