Epilepsy and Life Insurance

Sun, 02/18/2007 - 10:59
I had two sets of temporal lobe seizures 8 months ago. These were the only two of my life and I have had none since - completely controlled by medication (Lamictal). Does anyone have experience - positive or negative - with getting Life Insurance after seizures? I have it through work but want to increase the amount. Not quite sure what to expect. Would appreciate any experiences.

I know what your talking about. It wasn't much different back in the 1960's. But after being on a plan for a period of time your premimums did go down to the avreage persons rates. I still couldn't afford it but I got it thru the company I worked for. My epilepsy wasn't covered for the first year after that I had full coverage and the cost was the same for me as my friends was...

I have just now had the most horrid thought..I am hoping they cannot CANCEL my existing life insurance policy because of this diagnoses. Because I am pretty sure I will never be able to purchase one again now.or if I can, it will be horribly expensive! Our risk of sudden death is high even if controlled by meds the odds are higher for us than others and that is what insurance statistics are based on. Spaznurse
