Hi Everyone, I have had Complex Parcial Seizures now for 6 years after a bash to the head, I am now 49years young. I have been on medication for about 2-3 years, because of the hairloss I had experienced, I stopped medication again 1 year ago.
I have recently seen a new Neurologist who wants me to start back on medication, Lamictal (he said hairloss is not a side affect with this drug).
I have been researching for the last three months the Neurofeedback therapy which seems to be quite well known in America. I am having trouble finding a therapist here in Brisbane Australia, I have found an optomotrist who uses Neurofeedback but she specialises in optometric rehabilitation, her interest is people with vision disfunction from stroke or ADD just to mention a few. She does not specialise in Epilepsy.
What I am trying to find out is, is there a 100% cure of seisures with this Neurofeedback therapy? They have also mentioned the LENS technique, which is something new to me, I will have to look this up.
I have just finished the book The Brain That Changes Itself, I will have to get "The Healing Power of Neurofeedback" which was mentioned also.
It would be great to get some feedback as I need to get a life back and get back to driving, so I may have to get back to medication.
It does not look like there is much happening in Australia with Neurfeedback Therapists.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
