How to know if I have out grown epilepsy??

Ok to make a long story short I will try and keep this as short as possible.. I got diagnosed with epilepsy as a child at 8 after having seizures. At first I just got diagnosed with confusional migraines ad then a few years later got the epilepsy diagnoses.. I tried a few meds early on with no luck just bad reactions. Then I went on depakote and have been on it ever since roughly 12 Years old when I started I would say.. I was seizure free for two years then when the doctors tries to take me off of it so see if I had outgrown it! I then had a seizure and went back on right after and have been taking it for 10+ Years now as I am now 25 and have not had 1 seizure since!!! I want to go off depakote as I want to have a baby, and I am scared of the long term aide effects. I want to go off the meds so badly but I am scared of the same result happening again only this time I am an adult who has a son,  works, and drives etc... Idk I am just very overwhelmed and scared etc.. Any advise would be great!!!! Thanks for taking the time to read my story

I have had epilepsy for 35 years. It is very dangerous to stop medication on your own. If you feel that you may have outgrown your seizures, your doctor will recommend an eeg to see if you still have any seizure activity in your brain. If you do not have seizure activity then he/she can slowly take you off your meds while monitering you. If you do have seizure activity, then your doctor can make a medical suggestion to you. Epilepsy is hard to live with, I know but your doctor is your best resource. When I decided to have a baby I seen at least 3 different specialist to get their opinions. At that  time little was known about the meds I was on and pregnancy, but the medical knowledge on seizures has greatly advanced. We have been recognized finally. Good luck with everything and make good decisions when it comes to your epilepsy.
