Hello,
epilepsy management is a multi-disciplinary approach. A team of neurologists and neurosurgeons can assess if the condition is possible to cure via offering epilepsy surgery in select cases. Many cases can be controlled reasonably well with medications itself.

Hello,
itss good that you have given a good history of your symptoms. Yes you can take neurokind without any problems. In addition do not bend forwards / do not strain your back, sleep on a hard bed with a mattress and always sit on a dining chair with thin cushion etc rather than sofa and low seating arrangements.

Hello. If you have this much severe congenital nystagmus, you may consider surgery for the same. Surgery will be aimed at proper alignment of the eyes, so as to minimise the eyeball movement. That will also help you with your neck movement.
Nystagmus for such a long time may lead to cervical contracture if very severe, but not known to cause cervical spondylosis. Consult online for further details about your case in a more personalised way. Also kindly provide photographs with eyes looking i...more

Hi. Unfortunately there is no cure for rp as on now. All the medications or inventions are just aimed at improving the already diminished vision or improving the quality of life. For you per se genetic testing isn’t much useful now that you already have the disease.
But you should definitely get the genetic testing and counselling of your partner before marriage. Meanwhile, advise for you - 1. Vit a supplements 2. Visit an eye doctor if you experience further drop in your vision as there m...more

Hello lybrate-user,
I understand you have epilepsy and are on medication levitracetam how ever I do not understand why you can not undergo hair transplant. Thjere may be some drug interactions with the drugs prescribed at the time of hair transplant but I am sure this can be obviated by careful selection of the medications.

Hello,
it is not clear that whether you were taking medicine when the child was in utero, if the baby is born and is healthy then there is no problem. All antiepileptic drugs have a small chance of in utero damage but epilepsy itself can cause damage to the foetus so generally a low dose to control seizures is used during pregnancy.
