Can Epilepsy/Epileptic seizures go away for awhile (more than 10 years) then comes back later?
I'm 20 years old female. I been seizure free since the age 12. I stop taking my anti convulsive drug Tegretol (Carbamazepine) at age 14. Ever since then I haven't had not 1 seizure since till today. I used to have Rolandic seizures (seizures only during night or sleep). I was first diagnosed at age 3. I used to have Tonic clonic, Simple Partial, Complex Partial, and Absences. I'm still scared if my seizures could haunt me again. I was also diagnosed with Static Encephalopathy. It's says 20 old female with static encephalopathy manifest by learning disabilities and seizures. I only had mild learning disability. My neurologist never explained to mean about it. Also I heard there are people with epilepy and learning disability and doesn't have Static encephalopathy. What is the difference?
