Suggest Treatment For Refractory Epilepsy

Hello, I have had refractory epilepsy for 8 years now. One day it just started and it hasn t stopped. I have had brain surgery and surgery to get a VNS implanted. Neither helped. I have no medicine left to try. I am waiting for a new one to come out. I have already been checked for paraneoplastic syndromes, brain cancer, as well as limbic encephalitis. I believe it s getting worse because now I walk into things all the time and my hands shake all the time. Is there anything else you believe it can be?

Cardiologist,  's  Response
Hello There

After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that you should take second opinion from another neurologist for the same.

Hopefully this information will guide you properly.

Kind Regards
