    I'm sure I won't receive a reply due to the age of this video but I just wanted to reach out in some form - I am fortunate enough to have private healthcare through my mother and have recently been impaired by memory issues, general brain fog, and just generally feeling not quite right neurologically. I've wondered whether this could be depression but I find that unlikely since nothing in my life at present is contributing to symptoms associated with it. My mum was recently hospitalised due to having a cerebral haemorrhage accompanied by two seperate aneurysms. Due to this I've wanted to be screened to identify if I am also at risk but to also see if any other undiagnosed conditions could be contributing to the signs I'm experiencing. Is this something Dr Saifee could assist with? I understand his speciality is with tremors and Parkinson's and so don't want to use up your time if these other conditions aren't at the forefront of your interest, and additionally, would want to see a consultant who is best equipped to help me with this.

    Of course it changes behavior! 1. Can’t drive 2 Can’t drink (not heavy , just a social drink ! ) 3. Not too much sun 4. Ppl don’t rank to hire anyone with epilepsy 5. Seizures are frightening 6. Family/friends don’t understand so they kind of stay away making person feel depressed 7. Seizures are exhausting Just a FEW reasons why ppl have behavior changes. Your life is basically taken away. Wouldn’t anyone have behavior changes ? I’m just being practical here. Not angry. It’s just common sense.

      i triggered my epilepsy at 23 and was having multiple tonic clonic seizures every day, i went through a list of drugs (cant remember all the names) before i found something that stopped them. I remember taking clobazam but that didnt help me, now im just on sodium valporate (epilem chrono) and brivacetam twice a day, that helps but if i miss a dose i have multiple seizures and need my emergency meds to stop them (not great when you live alone) emergency meds i have are clobazam and epistatus. the only side effects i find is that im losing my memory, tell me something and i forget completely within 5 minutes, im 34 now and ant remember half my life. So so sad to hear of little ones having seizures, i know how they feel especially the recovery and kids shouldnt have to go through that :( I hope your wee man is doing good now

    Yes, they are much faster now at the diagnosis of MND. I was diagnosed in 1978. 43 years ago. It took six weeks to come up with a preliminary diagnosis and after the next outpatients appointment, it was confirmed that I had MND. I still have it 42 years on, but I'm alive to the wonder of those who just gave me 2 to 5 years life expectancy. Andy McGovern, Ireland never give up and tellers over. I would love to hear from anyone in the world who has got the disease longer than that. I know Stephen Hawking survived 55 years
