Secondary Generalized Seizures

Secondary Generalized SeizuresAnyone know or had done it? VNS surgery for seizures?

I was on medical therapy for almost 2 years and so far does not work. My neurologist told me about this last visit of VNS. Anyone who helps ease my mind on the goods and / or sore PLEASE? My seizures are complex \ partial secondarily generalized.

Yes, I had the implant. And yes, it works wonders on me. I have gran mal and the petit-mal seizures. I was about 20 drugs since I was 6 years. Before I had surgery I was on 5 medications. Now I'm on 3.
The advantages are that you really notice a decrease in seizures as long as you take your medications proplerly.
The disadvantages are the feeling you get in your throat when the stimulator off. It's quite annoying. But you get used to. The other is the battery. It is more cosmetic than anything else. Basically, it goes beyond just out of your chest.
But the key is for you to realize what is most important. A little discomfort in exchange for the possibility of being seizure free.
I had my seizures for 26 years. I was ready to make that sacrifice, are you?

No, but good luck good. A lot of research first
peace

Help i cannot for relief of VNS, because I do not know what it is that even if I have seizures (Grand center that lasted up to 20 min) and I'm taking 350 million. One night I started to avoid the phenobarbital combined with dilantin dilatin I only take me now was caused by an AVM I had surgery to remove it, but could not get everything they make the most of it (the size of a small orange), but not everything that I do not know the type of drugs you take, but I suggest you talk with your doctor Dilantin

Yes. and it worked! Good luck and God bless

VNS is supposedly very good job for depression .. I've never heard of working for seizures, but ur doc know more than we do .. I want to look for when I just assume it's the best .. VNS is still a procedure such as surgery and u want to be sure u know what to do
