Patient's question:
Hello, I am a patient with epilepsy. This condition has been with me for 7 years. Over these 7 years, I have been taking medication for treatment and have visited various hospitals, both big and small, but it hasn't been completely cured. Later, I switched to traditional Chinese medicine, but the effect wasn't too good. I would like to ask how to treat epilepsy that has been ongoing for 7 years with continuous medication?Doctor's answer:
For epilepsy, it is currently very difficult to cure, and we can only control its recurrence through medication. Generally, we cannot stop using the medication arbitrarily. If we do so, it may lead to repeated seizures or the relief of typical symptoms. If our medication can control the condition well, we should take these drugs orally for a long term. Regulate physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
