HI all! i m here for the first time. Suffering from epilepsy from last 20 years. Life was difficult when i was small. But as i grew old and my will to live a normal life overpowered the problem i had, i m really living a better life. The gud thing was that epilepsy, or as it was told to me- a brain calcification- due to cysticercosis or some blow on head, never interfered with my studies and i became a veterinary doctor. I work well, live well and yes love life. But always remember the patients i see in the neurology department, sad, suffering and really suffering indeed! Want to do something for the people like me. At this moment, i really dont know what can be done, but yes, something is to be done, especially in country like India, to where i belong, where epilepsy is treated as....................... can someone tell me about some organizations in India? Hey all friends i am here, if i can help in any way do tell me. For the first time dont know what else to write!! May be next time!
 
Hi Dr Shagun Agrawal, welcome to CWE!

It's always nice to hear of someone with epilepsy who has been able to create a happy fulfilling life despite it all. I don't know of epilepsy organizations in India, but we do have at least one member from India (who is a doctor!), and perhaps he will see your post and respond.

Best,
Nakamova
 
Hi Nakamova! Thanx for replying! Well, its not that i dont have problems, but now i stopped worrying for sufferings and all. Its said when sufferings are more stop being a glass be a lake!! The pain and sufferings in life are like salt. Put handfull in glass, the water will taste awefull but put the same in the lake............................... the lake water is still sweet. Suufering is the same but I m trying to be a lake! I m suffering from fractures (twice at same place), all because of Phenytoin, as it depletes calcium from the body. But then what! God is helping and I m living! Tell me more abt this place!
