Hello everyone!

I just wanted to introduce myself. I am a 37 year old married mother of two. My oldest, who just turned eight, was diagnosed with temporal lobe epilepsy in March of 2012. He has been seizure free on Keppra since md-May, but we are still struggling with side effects and trying to find a pediatric neuro that we feel completely comfortable with. I am so glad to have stumbled upon this board and I look forward to having so many "experts" here who can help with my questions/concerns. I hope, in time, to learn enough to be helpful to others as well!

Welcome to CWE Angela! I, too, am a mother of a child (teen, actually) diagnosed with E. I have found this to be a great place of support, knowledge and information. We are happy you have found us!
