Frontal Lobe Sugery Concerns and Questions
Wed, 11/07/2012 - 10:13Is there anyone out there who has Frontal Lobe seizures and a Frontal Lobe surgery resection done? I've just completed abattery of tests . I'm a good prospect to have it done and have lots of questions. I've had seizures since 4 which have never been fully controlled. ( Due to a birth injury) I'm 50 now- I have a 12 year old, am married and have not worked or driven for over 10 years now because of my seizures.I used to work in the medical field and I want my life back- but I am also very concerned about the process and what to expect ect. Our resources are limited, and I'm concened about insurance coverage also. I average about 10-15 seizures a day. including auras and nocturnal ones. I'm on Keppra, 1300 dly, Lamictal 600 dly and Topamax 100 dly. Please- if anyone has any type of information it would help.
