Status unlikely: Most common cause of status, is abrupt stopping your meds. The seizures should respond to anti-epileptic meds, but may take a while to get you into an appropriate therapeutic range. Work closely with your neurologist, and try different meds if seizures continue, but try not to worry, status is unlikely.

Status epi: Long-lasting status is a difficult case and can be serious. People who have recovered from status have a much better prognosis, with rare relapses, but they should continue anticonvulsant medications afterwards. They will likely always be on at least one medicine.
