Epilepsy is a chronic disease that requires long-term regular treatment with anti-epileptic drugs, and patients must have enough patience for the treatment of epilepsy, which is not like a cold and fever, as long as the symptomatic drip immediately after the drug to the fever. The effect of seizure control can only be achieved after the drug has reached a certain blood concentration. It is important to note that even after the seizures are controlled by the medication, it is still necessary to consolidate our victory. It is generally recommended that patients should consider reducing or gradually discontinuing the medication only after they have been completely unable to do so for 3-5 years and preferably after the EEG results are normal. In addition, after the medication is stopped, patients still need to pay attention to the regularity of life and avoid staying up late, colds, fatigue and other corresponding triggering factors, because epilepsy is very eccentric and stubborn, any of the above-mentioned triggering factors can lead to its reoccurrence. So in some ways, it is not easy to get a “cure” for epilepsy. However, if you think about it from another perspective, even a common cold and fever can happen several times in a person’s life. Even a small pawn of a disease like a cold cannot be completely “cured”, let alone epilepsy, so we must have confidence that we can get good control of the disease with a good mindset!
