This article led me to read more about the pros and cons of surgery. Below are some pointers that are shared by Epilepsy Action, UK.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">Success rates for epilepsy brain surgery</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">The success rate depends on the type of surgery. Many children stop having seizures after epilepsy surgery. If they do still have seizures, they usually have a lot fewer than before. If seizures continue, most children will usually continue to take their epilepsy medicine. Children who have a temporal resection usually do better than those who have an extra-temporal resection.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">Benefits and risks</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">Although the tests before epilepsy brain surgery are very thorough, it’s still not always possible to predict what the risks are for each child. However, the test results will help the doctors decide whether to recommend surgery for your child. They will be able to discuss this with you fully before any decision about surgery is made.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">Doctors will only go ahead with epilepsy brain surgery if the tests show that the benefits are likely to be higher than the risk of complications. The risks depend on the type of epilepsy brain surgery. Here are some possible risks.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">Memory problems</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">The temporal lobes handle memory and language. This means that any surgery on the temporal lobes can cause difficulties in remembering, understanding and speaking. The memory problems can be for things that a child has seen (‘visual memory’) or for things that a child has heard (‘verbal memory’).</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">More seizures than before</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">Cutting the connections between the two hemispheres (sides) of the brain in corpus callosotomy stops seizures spreading from one hemisphere to the other. However, it doesn’t stop all the seizures, only the drop attacks. In fact, some children may have more focal (partial) seizures, but they are less severe.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">Visual symptoms</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">After hemispherectomy (where the outer layer of one half of the brain is removed), a child’s vision may be reduced or they may have double vision. This is usually temporary. They may also have some difficulties with their peripheral vision. This may be temporary or permanent and will depend on how much of the brain has been removed.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">One-sided paralysis</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">After hemispherectomy (where the outer layer of one half of the brain is removed), a child may have limited use of one side of their body. This one-sided paralysis is called a hemiparesis or hemiplegia. Physiotherapy and occupational therapy can help with this.</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">Behavioural problems</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #20124d;">Some children may have had behavioural problems before the surgery. Or they may have had problems communicating or relating to other people. Epilepsy surgery itself will probably not help these problems. It is even possible that in a very few children, these problems may become a little worse.</span><br />

These days if one would to take a stroll in shopping malls, you almost cannot miss out on high end outlets carrying labels like Zara, Burberry, Louis Vutton, and other branded names that you can think of. To me, these outlets are the ones that are nice to look at from the exterior; those "See, no touch" and "See, no buy" kinda thing. Having said so, I must admit that it is still nice to have a second glimpse at these exclusive outlets.<br /><br />As a person with epilepsy, the topic of labels never fail to trigger a sore spot in me. I have lived through different phases of my life where I was being labelled as indifferent, weird, totally dependent and abnormal. And I am certain a lot of PWE would have experienced my same problems at some points in their lives. This should never have happened if not because of centuries old stigma. To stigmatize and being stigmatized, this derogatory process has got to stop.<br /><br />Stigmatized is defined as "If you stigmatize someone, you have given that person a label — and it's usually a label that is limiting in some way.<br /><br />In Ancient Greece, a stigma was a brand burned into a slave or a criminal's skin to symbolize disgrace. In the 1500s, the word stigmatize meant literally "to brand or tattoo." Nowadays, to stigmatize is to shame or brand a person in a more symbolic way."<br /><br />If living and coping with epilepsy is not enough, PWEs are frequently challenged and confronted with problems arising from stigma like low self esteem, self rejection and self blame to name a few. To make matters worse, there are also issues like driving, employment, marriage, pregnancy and friendship to look into.<br /><br />One ought to be extremely thankful if he or she does not have to live with epilepsy. But does that mean that he or she has the right to discriminate those of us who have epilepsy? Do not be quick to judge, criticize or stigmatize others when you are not walking a mile in their shoes. You can help by being more considerate and understanding towards others especially when you have no knowledge about their condition. What more, if their condition is a hidden condition like epilepsy.<br /><br />STOP THE STIGMA TODAY.</div>

This is a post that I wrote more than a week ago about the 1st International Epilepsy Day. I did not post it until now which is the actual date of the International Epilepsy Day.<br /><br />Happy reading.<br /><br />"Birthday is an occasion where nobody ever wants to miss. Most, if not all of us look forward with much excitement to this particular day called "Birthday" in every calendar year. Whether it is a small or big celebration, we all love to celebrate our birthdays to remember that special day when we were born into the world.<br /><br />My birthday for this year has passed but then there is another eventful day coming up on the way which is to me just as meaningful and even more exciting than my birthday. For the last three weeks, I have been crossing out the daily dates on my table calendar towards 9th February 2015.<br /><br />The 9th of February 2015 is going to be a very significant and memorable day for epilepsy societies, people with epilepsy and also their caregivers all around the world. On this day the first International Epilepsy Day will be celebrated concurrently by 138 countries in which The International Bureau for Epilepsy (IBE) and The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) are being represented. With IBE and ILAE in official working relations with the WHO, and with IBE in Special Consultative Status in the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) of the United Nations, this makes International Epilepsy Day to be the most prestigious epilepsy event in the world.<br /><br />The first International Epilepsy Day is on Monday, 9th of February 2015. Following on from this, the official day will be on the second Monday of February each year. This world day for epilepsy will be a major step in improving epilepsy awareness in every region of the world, and also highlight the urgent need for increased research into epilepsy.<br /><br />With such a prominent day in the line up, I certainly won't want to miss this day or let it pass by uneventfully. I have done my early homework by submitting an epilepsy article to a local news media. If all goes as planned, my article should appear in the media on the 9th of February.<br /><br />These days, a scroll in my Facebook shows so many epilepsy societies and epilepsy advocates like me, posting about their epilepsy activities and events that are meant to coincide with the first International Epilepsy Day. Viewing and reading the endless posts about epilepsy awareness and researches has widened my knowledge of epilepsy tremendously and I am very thankful about it.<br /><br />For the last 13 over years as a person with epilepsy and an epilepsy advocate, I noticed a lot of advancement has been made in the areas of epilepsy awareness and research breakthroughs. Needless to say, this will continue to progress rapidly in the decades to come and it is my fervent hope that one day a cure will be found for epilepsy.<br /><br />Once again, my sincerest and heartfelt thanks to IBE and ILAE for creating this momentous day - International Epilepsy Day."</div>

<br />
Last week I posted an article about epilepsy and aura. It was interesting to note the comments left by some of our members.<br />
<br />
Ejard and Peng Kwee shared that they experienced hearing difficulty
prior to their seizures. Billy had twitching in his elbows or cramps in
his fingers warning him of potential seizures. Shanthi's brother also
had twitching in his fingers. Occasionally his eyes turned very red and
looked tired out before a seizure.<br />
<div class="text_exposed_show">
In my entire lifetime of seizures I had only on two occasions felt some
indifferent sensation in my head prior to my seizures. I felt dizzy
and light headed.<br />
<br />
For many auras are easily recognizable and for
some it can take a long while for their auras to be recognized. Some
auras are accurate indicators of seizures and some are not.<br />
<br />
<i>Below are some common types of aura before a seizure.</i><br />
<i> </i><br />
<i>Déjà vu (a feeling of being there before but never have).</i><br />
<i> Racing and confusing thoughts.<br /> Tastes<br /> Visual loss/blurring<br /> “Strange” feelings<br /> Fear/panic <br /> Smells<br /> Pleasant feelings<br /> Dizzy or lightheaded<br /> Odd sounds<br /> Headache<br /> Nausea or other stomach feelings.<br /> Numbness or tingling in part of the body<br /> Jamais vu (a feeling that something is very familiar but it isn’t).</i><br />

<br />
Even though I knew my wish would be for the
impossible I still wished for it during last Christmas - all I wanted
for Christmas was a cure for my epilepsy. Then came New Year and again I
made the same wish.<br />
I believe my wish is also the wish of every
person with epilepsy. While a small percentage of people with epilepsy
live to share their success stories of how surgeries had rendered them
being permanently seizure free, a big portion of us are dependent o<span class="text_exposed_show">n medications to offer us good control of our seizures.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="text_exposed_show">
Whilst wishing for a cure is being unrealistic in my case, my next
immediate wish is to be blessed with some kind of aura for my seizures
and I know Shanthi Ballu and Jacqueline Lim's brothers would also wish
for the same. Mohd Shafizal shared that each time he had an aura he
would cancel his job appointments which required him to drive. His
freelance job gave him the opportunity to rest at home whenever he had
an aura.<br />
<br />
Except on two occasions my generalized seizures always
strike me without any aura warning me before hand. Cuts, bruises,
bleeding, cracked jaw bone, broken teeth and swollen lumps are some
common injuries I have experienced. Kim Chin shared with us about some
of her brother's injuries. Her brother's facial features and head have
been badly injured as a result of his uncontrolled seizures and he is
wearing a protection head gear to prevent further head and facial
injuries.<br />
<br />
A Cantonese saying goes like "No fish, shrimps are just
as good." For people with epilepsy the saying probably goes like "No
cure, auras are just as good." Auras give us the benefit of settling
down in a safe place/position before a seizure takes place and in that
way a lot of injuries would be prevented.<br />

<br />
Driving poses daily
challenges for many people with epilepsy. Driving a car is critical to
employment, socialization, and self esteem.<br />
<br />
As a person with
epilepsy I have frequent thoughts of wanting to jump behind a steering
wheel and drive myself to wherever I like. The feeling of being able to
drive is both luring and elusive.<br />
<br />
If only I could drive then I
wouldn't have to depend on others, but what if a seizure happens and as a
result I get killed or I kill someone else instead? This coupled with
other thoughts are enough to quash all my hopes of being able to drive
one day. I know my own limitation. One obvious reason that will rule
me out as a driver is I still experience seizures despite achieving some
good seizure free months periodically.<br />
<br />
So, can a person with
epilepsy drive? In my case it is no but in many cases it is yes. A
check with PEM's president indicated that there are some general driving
guidelines for people with epilepsy in our country. As of to date
there aren't any specific legislation set to that effect yet.<br />
<br />
