What was it like breaking into acting? And how do you determine the films you wish to be a part of? Does your agent help guide your career, or do you play a more instrumental role?

Do you feel your identity has changed at all post-surgery? Have you had any life-changing moments or epiphanies since surgery?

My sister was also recently diagnosed with epilepsy at the age of 33. She had been having partial complex seizures for nearly a decade which got worse over time. Her auras feel like Deja Vu mixed with a sense of fear and panic. This is one of the reasons her epilepsy went undiagnosed for so long: She thought she was having anxiety attacks.

She has been struggling with her meds as well, and had a severe reaction to one of them. They also greatly affect her mood, though her current medication seems to be showing a marked improvement. Yet, her doctors are recommending surgery.

What's your experience been like with medications since your diagnosis? Any advice? Any success?

By accident? How so?

Also, a ketosis diet helps with the seizures, as does CBD oil... At least for her. Unfortunately, CBD oil is expensive as she has to use huge doses to get results. Marijuana itself gives her too much anxiety and can increase the amount of seizures.
