Patient's question:
My daughter is 5 years old. This past October, one morning she suddenly had her eyes tilted, which lasted for about half a minute. After that, she had episodes every day. She has taken oxcarbazepine and Keppra, but they haven't worked. Now she has episodes several times a day.Doctor's answer:
In the past, the diagnosis and treatment methods for epilepsy were relatively monotonous, and the therapeutic effects were not very ideal. This also gave people the misconception that epilepsy could not be cured. Although epilepsy is difficult to treat, it is not incurable. A large amount of data shows that as long as treatment is timely and appropriate methods are used, most patients can achieve complete control and cure. Therefore, epilepsy is not an incurable disease. Currently, there are many medical institutions that treat epilepsy. It is recommended that you must go to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment.
