Does epilepsy still recur after being cured?

Patient's question:

I heard from my mom that I had epilepsy when I was a child, but it onlyed a total of four or five times. After the first, I went to the hospital for an operation that affected the epilepsy, and also took antiepileptic medication. Gradually, I stopped having seizures, and it's probably been cured. Since I started being filial, I haven't had any more seizures. Now I've gone to university, and in the future, I want to find good training, hoping I won't have any more seizures.
What kind of help is needed: Will epilepsy again after being cured? How should it be checked?

Doctor's answer:

Patients with epilepsy must undergo regular and thorough check-ups, and increase their medication dosage appropriately as advised by their doctors. Do not assume the disease is completely cured just because there has been no recurrence. Epilepsy is, after all, a chronic symptom of endocrine system disorders. Therefore, patients must pay close attention to this. They should approach their illness correctly and address life's challenges appropriately. Meanwhile, family members should offer more encouragement to the patients, focusing on emotional support and comfort to create a positive psychological and living environment, which can help reduce the frequency of seizures.
