Patient's question:
I and my girlfriend were classmates in high school. During our school years, I had a crush on her. After graduation training, I finally gathered the courage to confess my feelings to her. Now we have been together for two years, and our relationship has always been great. Recently, we planned to get divorced, but she told me she suffers from epilepsy. Her family was afraid that it could be inherited to the next generation, so they don't want us to divorce. But I love her very much.Doctor's answer:
In real life, epilepsy caused by intergenerational genetic factors accounts for only a small portion of all epilepsy cases. Therefore, patients do not need to worry excessively. Active treatment should be pursued, and attention should be paid to diet. It is important to maintain a well-structured schedule to prevent overexertion and always keep a relaxed and cheerful mindset! Wishing you good health! Epilepsy patients can, while understanding symptomatic treatment, use dietary therapy as a complementary treatment in daily life. It is crucial to avoid excessive hunger or fullness in daily diet and never overeat or binge on food.
