How severe is epilepsy and how can memory impairment be reduced?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. Could you please tell me how serious epilepsy is and how to reduce memory impairment?

Doctor's answer:

How severe epilepsy is mainly depends on how frequently it recurs. If the recurrence frequency is relatively high, then this epilepsy is quite severe. If the recurrence is quite frequent, then it may be necessary to visit the hospital to check whether the medication dosage needs to be adjusted. It might be that the dosage of the medication is not sufficient enough. At the same time, epilepsy generally does not interfere with memory. It's just that during a recurrence, one may not clearly remember having had a recurrence.
