Does anyone here have epilepsy and/or know someone with it? My sister was diagosed at age 5 with epilepsy. at that time she was having petit mal seizures. She is now 50 plus yrs old. About 15 yrs ago she had her very first full-blown seizure(had stopped her meds)..she's been on the same med now for 15 yrs--recently she's had what she called 'deja vu' seizures--where she's lost track of time (not a grand mal i think probably more like her petite mals of eons ago..) anyway, any thoughts? is this a harbinger of a full-blown grand mal to come? she's got a neurologist appt for in 2 weeks. but i'd hate something to happen in the mean time to where she'd loose her driver's license!

My six year old granddaughter was recently diagnosed with epilepsy but I'm afraid I don't much about it just as yet. Maria tends to zone out during hers and, luckily, has only had a couple of full blown convulsive episodes
