If you're among the 800,000 American women of childbearing age with epilepsy, you and your obstetrician will have some medical decisions to make. Seizure Surgery Surgery for epilepsy is considered when seizures are frequent enough and/or severe enough to significantly interfere with a person's ability to function at full capacity, or when trials of appropriate anti-seizure medications have failed.

Psychological and Cognitive Issues Related to Epilepsy Reaching Out to Families and Individuals Affected by Epilepsy because
We Believe that Not Another Moment Should be Lost to Seizures!
Epilepsy is one of the major health problems of our nation. More than 2.5 million Americans have epilepsy, yet it remains one of our most misunderstood and unknown health issues. About 181,000 new cases affecting people of all ages are diagnosed each year, resulting from head injury, stroke, prenatal illness, a variety of illnesses, and many other causes. The cause of epilepsy is unknown in over 70% of cases. About half of people with epilepsy have continuing seizures even with treatment. Many face problems in educational attainment, employment, transportation, and social interactions.

Understanding Canine Epilepsy
WHAT IS EPILEPSY?
Epilepsy is a symptom of an underlying neurologic dysfunction occurring within the brain. Toxic substances, metabolic or electrolyte abnormalities or imbalances cause an uncoordinated firing of the neurons located within the section of the brain known as the cerebrum. These episodes of uncoordinated firing manifest themselves in the form of convulsions or seizures in which the dog may experience mild tremors to severe thrashing movements. Epilepsy may occur secondary to many diseases such as distemper, brain tumors, liver or heart failure, diabetes, or as a result of exposure to toxic substances or trauma. However, "true" epilepsy as that which occurs in hereditary syndromes within certain breeds of dogs manifests as a symptom of primary neurologic dysfunction of which the cause is still unknown. As such, from a clinical standpoint, in cases of true epilepsy, only the symptom is treatable.
