Epilepsy Surgery- Help!
Fri, 10/23/2015 - 22:16Has anyone on here had any success with epilepsy surgery? I've had epilepsy for 5 years and have complex-partial seizures localized to my left occipital lobe where I had a brain tumor removed from. I currently take 2000 mg of Keppera 2x a day and 200 mg of Topamax 2x a day and have maxed out both of those doses. I have tried every other medication out there over the 5 years with no luck so I'm basically at the end of my rope. I'd love to be done with seizures and get back to normal living! Any advice or success stories would be awesome!!!
