Does one seizure mean I have epilepsy? Will my child with epilepsy have developmental problems? Is it safe to exercise?
Few conditions are plagued by as many misconceptions and prejudices as epilepsy. In Epilepsy 101, renowned medical experts compile facts and explanations about the disorder to help readers of all ages better manage their health. While addressing commonly asked questions about medicines, diets, and surgery, Epilepsy 101 also tackles often overlooked issues such as psychiatric effects, insight into doctor recommendations, and patient rights.
