I have found reading newspapers is helping my memory I feel reading small bits of information eg. Small bits of info / paragraphs + little stories of about people or news.
Focal seizures for 30 years Memory keeps getting worse. Family and friends don’t understand or believe it. Some laugh that I can’t remember big events in my life The good is that I’ll forget if they do make fun of me. Just hope I won’t lose myself
Same here i completely lost a couple weeks after a severe seizure as a matter of fact for 2 days afterwards I had no memory of being awake even though I was it was like i woke up and was me I was told I didnt know who I was my children my cat my husband my son said I even acted like a child I am terrified Im going to lose who I am and when I say this its like people think its no big deal to me its frightening. I know how you feel.
I enjoy this video so much. I've lived with epilepsy for more than 50 years, but this video teaches me how to manage the memory I feed to my brain and how my brain stores that memory. I do have auditory processing issues so I've watched this video more than once.
Thank you very much for this video. My short term memory has been terrible since the epilisy got worse. You really helped to put it in perspective and help me have a better understanding.
Thank you for this informative session. This video will help a lot of people to better understand the effects of seizure activity, and research new information about this puzzle of events. 👍
my memory sucks now its so irritating as fuck i have grand mal mostly my short term memory can recount a lot of past memorising like when i met my now wife and when we got married etc.
I stopped all anti epileptic drugs, they never helped me and zombied me, I now have a vagus nerve stimulator, still not a cure but the only side effect is it helps depression 😃💗😃 xoxo
I stopped keppra after I had my second tonic clonic seizure 30 days after the first. Had a shoulder bone transplant and my front teeth replaced from falling and slamming my face into the ground. I take 80mg of RSO everyday and keep a steady rate of THC in my blood with a patch or by smoking and vaping. I haven't had a major seizure like the first 2 in a year and a half
Thank you for this video. I've got temporal lobe epilepsy and I take Keppra to treat it. Lately I've been struggling with memory issues that I didn't always have. I wasn't sure if memory was a big problem in people with epilepsy until watching this. I'm not entirely sure if Keppra can do this? I do know that my siezures have increased recently too so maybe that's why. I'm not sure. But this video certainly helps people like me understand what's going on a bit better.
Keppra really messed me up too. ER docs don't know how keppra helps epilepsy, it's literally in their protocol to go right to keppra because it's IV and stops grand mals. Say you're allergic to keppra and they will try ketamine. Seriously
I can still remember anything than others but only for a short time .. my short term memory is progressing good till now but I can't know why I can't store them in my long memory?? I'm having new onset seizure

Has it stopped your seizures? I'm looking into this for my husband.
Carey Gulliksen no not a cure, but does help the after effects of my seizures 😃😃😃 xoxo

I would like to speak to a Nurolagest about my Epilepsy. I have been dealing with for the past 40 years.
Eat marijuana edibles, but if you can't CBD oil helps a lot. Keeps your brain safe while you're looking ❤️

Great presentation. He even got someone who experiences seizures to prepare his name tag.
Incredible video. Sucks I can’t retain it.
So painful, I’m writing a book on keto atm and when I re read to edit it I learn something new 🤦♂️🤦♂️

Excellent video help me a lot! I have a question Can lost memory be recovered?
Hi. I have it after car hit me. I have better an understanding, thank u for post. Regards
I can still remember anything than others but only for a short time .. my short term memory is progressing good till now but I can't know why I can't store them in my long memory?? I'm having new onset seizure
MY SHORT TERM MEMORY IS SINFULLY BAD.
My memory used to be fabulous but not now due to i believe my little problem
Does epilepsy causes bad memory or the side effects of the medications.
It's a really good question and I would also like to know the answer. I've been wondering the same thing.
I would say both have equal effects
Both
Either one or both
I HAVE HAD SEIZURES ALSO.
Epilepsy and alcohol
