Patient's question:
My cousin, she suffered from epilepsy when she was very young. She is now 26 years old. This epilepsy has been treated for many years, but it hasn't been completely cured. The family sees that she has reached this age and considers her marriage issue. They don't know if patients with epilepsy can get divorced. Will it affect the next generation?Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy patients also want to have a normal life, so whether epilepsy can lead to divorce is a concern for both patients and their families, which is somewhat related to the hereditary transmission of epilepsy. However, epilepsy patients can definitely get divorced. Can epilepsy lead to divorce? The answer is yes. In very rare cases, this disease may have irregular hereditary interference, but it does not significantly affect the majority of people. The extent of the interference is mainly related to the cause of the seizures. Therefore, whether epilepsy patients can get divorced is somewhat related to the type of epilepsy. In addition to receiving timely treatment for epilepsy, patient friends should always maintain a positive attitude to face the disease, only in this way can they reduce the patient's immunity and strengthen their belief in combating the disease.
