Hello my name is Ranger and I just had my surgery 4 months ago. 11/12/2007.
I was having about 2 seizures a day prior to surgery. After surgery I had a couple of seizures while the brain was healing. Especially during the first 2 months. Since then the only thing I feel is the Pins and needles feeling on my scalp. Which in itself is a mild seizure. I need to wait until the 12 month period to judge for sure. However at this point it appears to have slowed but not completely stoped them.
As long as they continue to slowly improve or at the very least dont worsen from where they are I consider it a win, and worth the surgery.
