Patient's question:
Aunt has suffered from epilepsy for 4 or 5 years and has tried many methods, but the condition has not improved on its own. In the past two months, she has had frequent relapses. I would like to ask, what is the best method for treating epilepsy? How severe is it?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the information you provided, you are a warm-hearted person. First, for epilepsy, the initial treatment is oral medication. Of course, medication cannot cure the condition, so it requires long-term medication. Besides, if there are prerequisites, surgery can be considered at a large comprehensive evaluation hospital. However, the surgery cost is also relatively high. Additionally, the issue of cure rate must be addressed, as sometimes even after surgery, the condition may not be completely cured. Of course, these points can be discussed with the patient's family members and avoid saying too much to the patient.
