Neuropace

Does anyone know anything about the new device called the neuropace? I know it is like a pacemaker of the heart; it shocks your brain when it sees the abnormal brain waves. But other than that, does anyone know anything else on it? My doc thinks I have bilateral TLE; he is not exactly sure yet. I still have to have some more tests done to know exactly. My doc told me this may be an option to me. He doesn't really know though. But anyways, any help will be great.

Hey ya'll, I went in for depth electrodes last week. It comes to find out that my seizures were coming from my RTL. I went ahead and had a right temporal lobectomy done while I was at UAB. I am SOOOOO glad that I was able to have the surgery. Maybe that will stop my seizures for good. I don't know. All I can do is to think positive.
