Patient's question:
My second aunt has had epilepsy for over three years. How long does it take to treat epilepsy, how is it treated, and where should she go for treatment?Doctor's answer:
When seeking medical treatment, don't just say which hospital is good. Instead, you should speculate on their diagnosis methods and treatment approaches, then consider whether the condition can be cured. You should have a detailed understanding before trusting them to treat you. Human life is not a game. If the treatment is appropriate, the illness will improve. If it's not, you may rely on medication for the rest of your life. Epilepsy is not an incurable disease. Why does it not respond to treatment? Each patient's cause of illness, condition, duration of illness, severity of the disease, and age at onset are all different, leading to varied medication needs. Moreover, Western medicine can only control the condition and not cure it. Even with prolonged treatment, it is merely control, and the disease will only worsen year by year.
