What problems do epilepsy patients face during treatment?

Patient's question:

My cousin's son has started experiencing frequent involuntary twitches last month, and sometimes he also has brief episodes of memory loss. The frequency of recurrence increases after eating too much or after completing physical activities. He doesn't take his tutoring seriously, and his academic performance has been declining steadily. Later, after a thorough medical examination at the hospital, it was diagnosed as epilepsy (also known as "").

Doctor's answer:

There are many patients who seek follow-up treatment at unlicensed medical facilities, consuming large quantities of so-called Chinese herbal medicine to treat epilepsy. In reality, most of these so-called epilepsy Chinese herbal medicines are mixed with various Western medicines. Excessive use can easily lead to the recurrence of poisoning incidents.
Family members must have confidence in the condition and avoid discouragement. Most patients can achieve good control after receiving standardized treatment and can undergo normal training without excessive mental burden.
In addition to treating epilepsy, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood at all times to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
