Epilepsy changing your lifestyle

Tue, 01/31/2012 - 21:36

Hi, so I have had epilepsy for five years in June and was diagnosed when twelve, so that makes me 18 soon :)

I am changing medications against my wishes to Topamax soon and so much stuff has happened and epilepsy has changed my life, with obstacles and such.

For my senior year we choose a major project, mine is 'Epilepsy changes and individuals life' . In this I study hgisotry, society's views, perspectives and so mu ch about epilepsy but also for this I need case studies of various people, various ages, just to highlight the effects epilepsy can have.

 

If anyone is interested in helping, or want information, or willing give me their story email me at  emilyzucak@hotmail.com

 

Please it would be great help.
