Hello.

I must appreciate your fighting spirit. I would like to ask if you are on any anti-epileptic medication. Do you still have any persistent effects of the chicken pox?

It is important to classify the seizures. Different anti-epileptics have different actions. Some are useful for generalized seizures, some for partial. What type of seizures do you have?

Regards
