Hey all, Finally decided to join an forum to maybe learn more share experience and most hopefully get some guidance.
So Hey I am Jackson, I experienced my first Seizure when I was 24 years old and had the luck (sarcasm) of that happening while I was driving, and finishing a degree in criminal justice, luckily I did not kill myself or anyone else......... after that I was sent for an MRI and diagnosed with a "minor" (according to doctor) form of epilepsy in my left temporal lobe. since finding out I have had 4 more seizures, all being relatively infrequent, two that were nearest were a month apart with the others being 3 or more months apart, and another a couple months after I was declared able to drive again...... again while driving....
I have been on a few different medications now, with none controlling the seizures or giving me the worst side effects possible..... So major reason of needing guidance is for help of whom and how to best contact neuro surgeons to find out if I am a potential candidate for surgery....
