Thanks. I volunteered to be in the clinical trails for MR at Stanford and Mayo but that focal study only allowed one zone that was deep rather than multiple epilepsy zones. Darn it. Yet I rejoice in where your field is going. ✌🏻

How much time taken partially to recover after resection of right frontal lobe and middle anterior region sir totally how much time csn be taken to recur fully any suggestion for epilepsy

Hi Dr. Omar. I’ve been watching your videos all morning to see why I still have seizures. I had brain surgery when I was 10 for a benign tumor in my frontal lobe. I was fine with no seizures until I was 14. I had a seizure and my doctors realized they missed some of it. After that surgery I continued to have seizures. Most of them happening at night. They were grand mal seizures every time. One of my doctors said it was all in my head and I was just tricking myself into having them. Now my parents and new doctor won’t believe me when I say I have these seizures at night sometimes. And now during the day I will have a jerking movement out of nowhere and won’t be able to talk for a split second. I also get an aura feeling sometimes but i control my breathing and it stops. I don’t know what to do about this because my new doctor also says they’re not real seizures.

very nice sir.....thanks for your valuble light on topic.....

If you are a candidate for epilepsy surgery, DO IT! Best decision I ever made.

hi doctor omar,, my son have FCD and had his surgery two weeks ago and still in his medication suddenly he have a seizure last night why what happen? im crying as a mum rigt now

Hi I am from Ireland was diagnosed with epilepsy at 20 am on anti Convulsant medication since and in 2011 had right frontal lobectomy epileptic surgery in Beaumont Hospital Dublin luckily my medication has been halved down to control my epilepsy health is wealth with the aid of my dearest parents in heaven rest in peace watching over me👍👍🙏🙏🙏and our dear lord and lady Mary in Heaven ❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏love your comments absolutely appreciated it is much appreciated best wishes Declan 🖐️🖐️👍👍🙏🙏

I had a left temporal lobectomy in 2004 when I was 19. I will say that it helped my grand mal seizures extremely. I still have partial seizures as scheduled because I have catamenial epilepsy, but it’s manageable. The downside is that my concentration and attention span is very short like I developed ADHD 😂 My memory is pretty good but my verbal processing skills can be bad some days. I have turned into a visual learner. When I was a teenager I could read something and I got it right away. Now I understand better when I hear and see instead of just reading simply. My Dr offered the VNS surgery about 3 years ago but I am already almost 38. I think the younger people should try a surgery if they are able. 😊

Salam doctor Omar Your video is very informative. As a man with epilepsy, I've had my eeg & mri. My doctor said that I need a surgery because my seizures came 2-3 times a day. Keppra did not work. I take clobazam 10mg 2x2 and carbamazephine 1x2 everyday. The seizure frequency drops to 3-4 times per month.However, I get difficulty in finding words when talking and my short-term memory drops down worse than before currently. May I know what is your opinion about my condition doctor? And your suggestion to take a surgery. Thanks for your reply

Hi Dr. Omar. I just did a Cranial Fiduciary Placement today at the West Los Angeles VA Hospital with Dr. Langevin from Torrance, CA and we can see what is next. I have all of my chats on what they did when I went to do a MEG exam and something else when I went to the University of California San Francisco in August of 2023. I go back to the West L.A in 2 weeks for the actual surgery and from there we will see what decision it will be to have. I’m currently on 5 medications. If you could assist me also with any additional advice that would be great. Thanks Dr. Omar.

What to expect after right frontal lobe resection surgery for epilepsy surgery

Good morning Dr. Danoun. Thanks for your different videos on epilepsy. Dear Dr. My 16 year child is suffering from epilepsy. MRI says Right Mesial Temporal sclerosis. Dr. says it is generalized seizer. Kindly guide which surgery is possible? Where surgery should I performed in India?

Hi doctor, I am considering surgery because I believe I am drug resistant, been an epileptic for 7 years now. I have 5-10 auras a week, do you believe the surgery and medicine after the surgery take away my auras? Thank you for all the information on your channel ❤

Hi doctor... I am Mayya from India and am regular viewer of your RU-vid channel. I am suffering from epilepsy from past 25 years and I had a surgery last month. Doctor's said surgery was went very well. After epilepsy surgery my usual seizures and sudden falling get stopped, but now I am getting seizures regularly during sleep, which was not there before. My doctor said that it would take few months to recover after brain surgery. Please let me know what is your opinion about this?

I like this video, my son is 3yrs old. His has a seizure Diagonosis. His doctors has brought the next steps for him. 1, vagus Nerve stimulation 2. Corpus callosotomy Could you please discuss a detailed video of the Corpus callosotomy surgery ?? That would be awesome. Thank you in advance

Please give me a any idea what to do??

What if you have seizures, but they are abnormal and neurologist can’t figure out why you have them? I am now 30 and been having seizures since I was 4, but they don’t know if it’s epilepsy. I got an MRI, EEG and EMU, so at least they can see the side of the brain they are coming from. That being said, medication helps with the grand mal, but I still have breakthrough partial seizures and they can’t figure out why.

i have been finding it difficult to find words lately and being able to finish a full sentence when my fiance and i have an argument. what can i do about that??

Can you please talk about the connections between seizures and different migraine-like “ with aura “..

Doctor.my 14 Years old daughter has focal cortical displasia .there is a leision in right peritral lobe.seizures not controlling .is there any risk to doing a brain surgery.we are so helpless.pls help

Hello doctor my son who is 18 years old has got encephalitis on January 1, 2023. He has been bedridden for almost 4 weeks. While he was asleep he had a lot of convulsions and was given 4 different medications for it. After he woke up and the swelling went away, the doctors had reduced his anti-epileptic medication. Now 2 weeks ago he had a lot of seizures and he is back on 3 different medications for the seizures. The doctor told us that his seizures start in the superior temporal lobe. Now he is still in the hospital to balance the medications as he has a lot of sensations and 1-2 seizures per day. He has done all the tests and they are sure his seizures start there. Do you think surgery is a good solution? Sincerely

When I was born, I had 11 surgeries in my stomach in the small intestine, and I got cerebral palsy, i’m on chroma, ptosis, haemochromatosis, hepatitis C antibodies, and at the age of 14 I developed epilepsy, and I still process osteoporosis will I should I still have the probes in my brain but I still have seizures and ani seizures medication does work

I've had seizures since I was 3 years old and I'm 20 now and still have them. My Neorology Doctor said maybe for a Surgery and I'm super scared because it's gonna be my first one🙁🙁

I was one such drug resistant patient. Surgery was the ONLY thing that cured me. Sadly too many neuros just want to keep their patients thus their income.

I have PNES.Can you still be eligible for brain surgery??

hi Doctor, My 1 year old son's diagnosed recently with epilepsy, he had short seizures like west syndrome between 30-120 times (usually after waking up, noon time and evening) during day, but stopped after taking some medicine. Diagnosis: Congenital malformation of the brain. Focal cortical dysplasia (right side of brain, size 31x21x25 mm). Epileptic encephalopathy. Infantile spasms. Is it safe to have surgery asap, or better to wait till he becomes at least 2 yo. His vocabulary is very less than before, but physically active still.

JME myoclonic Epilepsy What is the best surgery?

When I go to sleep in the afternoon or at night as soon as I hit the pillow my head starts to shake or jerk, it moves from left to right, and right to left continuesly, I have had a stroke 7 years ago, and immediately after that I had 2 seizures, I am on anti seizures medication since then, so why is my head shaking at night????

I had surgery when I was 17 for seizures, im 34 now since Covid and getting the 💉 I’ve had multiple seizures

i don't have drug resistant epilepsy but my medicine still doesn't respond

My son also have a sizer

So as a epileptic stroke survivor', basically even with surgery there's a good chance of still having seizures, then why not find a high bridge, take all epilepsy meds at same time. Overdose then take a swan dive is an instant cure. Inmho. I'm taking , 1000 mg keppra, 300 mg lamotrogine, 10 mg clobazam and still having extremely strong aura's, seizures. Waking up to auras etc. Am so tired of this epileptic life, world
