Laser Ablation Surgery

Mon, 05/05/2014 - 23:59

I had an appointment with my neurologist last week and he recommended Laser Ablation Surgery. I  was hoping to get some feed back on how successful it is, what it involves, any side affects resulting from the surgery and recovery time. Thank you

not yet, but leaning towards it. my seizures r triggered by stress and I've been through 12 different  meds and none of them have helped. I've had a hard time finding any info on this surgery. since you've already started the process is there any recommendations on resources?

I'm trying to decide as well.
