Can epilepsy be cured?

γ€€γ€€In 1987, British scientists conducted a systematic study on the prognosis of epilepsy patients, and the result was that 60-80% of epilepsy patients could be cured or be seizure-free for a long time with the effective control at that time. And the results of the study showed that with timely formal and systematic treatment, the prognosis of epilepsy is better than this result and far more optimistic than people estimated. Early and effective treatment is a major factor in determining the prognosis.γ€€γ€€A number of people in China currently mistakenly believe that epilepsy has a poor prognosis and even consider epilepsy as an incurable disease. This is caused by the fact that the current status of epilepsy treatment in a large area of China lags far behind the world level of epilepsy treatment. For a long time, a considerable number of doctors, especially grassroots doctors, have little understanding of the basic methods of modern epilepsy treatment, and the lack of systematic and formal treatment has caused most patients who could have been cured to lose a good opportunity to have recurrent seizures, so that patients who would have insisted on taking medication lost their confidence and thought that there was little hope for a cure, thus stopping the medication on their own, adding difficulties to further treatment. The actual fact is that there are so many different kinds of deceptive advertisements in the society called “cure” and “high technology”, so that patients are deceived and hurt physically and mentally.
