Seizures: Advances in medication, functional MRI imaging, and surgery for seizures means that is unlikely you have to continue with seizures indefinitely. Try to maintain good sleep habits, eat a healthy diet, take the seizure medicine as prescribed, and live life in moderation to reduce or eliminate the seizures.
