How is epilepsy treated?

A provider and person with epilepsy can do several things to stop or lessen seizures.

The most common treatments for epilepsy are:

Medicine: Anti-seizure drugs are medicines that limit the spread of seizures in the brain. A health care provider will change the amount of medicine or prescribe a new drug if needed to find the best treatment plan. Medicines act for around 2 in 3 people with epilepsy.
Surgery: When seizures arise from a single area of the brain (focal seizures), the surgery to exclude that area may stop future seizures or make them easier to manage with medicine. Epilepsy surgery is mostly used when the seizure focus is located in the temporal lobe of the brain.
Other treatments: When medicines fail to work and surgery is not possible, then other treatments can help.

Video EEG is nothing but a simultaneous recording of EEG along with a video camera focused on you all the time. You will be admitted, and EEG leads will be connected to you. You will be under the camera for 24 hours while your EEG on. When you have a seizure, it will record the exact movements you do during your seizure activity and simultaneous EEG recordings. This will provide us with the exact idea of the area of your brain accountable for producing these seizures. Generally, 3-10 episodes of seizure will be recorded and so patients usually stay for 5-7 days in the hospital. We generally stop your drugs so that more seizures can be obtained in a short time. It is secure as you are having seizures in a controlled environment of the hospital, supported with doctors and nurses all the time.

These surgeries are called curative surgeries where once that area is removed; patient will be mostly free of epilepsy. However, there is a group of patients in which a large area is responsible, or we could not define a small area or removing complete area is not feasible; surgeries are meant to just reduce seizure frequency and improve quality of life. These surgeries are called palliative surgeries.
