Hi, I am new to the community and had a right temporal lobectomy almost 4 months ago. They gave me an 80% chance, but am still having them. The Dr's said it could take up to 6 months before they could stop. I have always been weird though. I have had them since I was 5, I am now 23 and they just got an abnormal reading on an EEG in January and that was from internal electrodes. How long did it take for you to stop having seizures?
