Hi,
well she's doing not bad at all to be honest at the moment. Lisa came out of hospital last Friday having spent 2 weeks having extended EEG's and psychology testing, the neurosurgeon was very surprised how Lisa's memory improved at various levels of stimulation, her best achievement was number recall and the speed at which she did this.
We're back in around 4 weeks time in day clinic.. once they've looked at all the data captured then they'll tweak the stimulation to suit, but this is just the starting point and adjustments will continue over the next 18 months.
Seizure wise it might be that she's just going through a good patch but this last 2 weeks have been good...a few completely clear days (unheard of for Lisa) other days she's had 2-3 seizures maybe.....most of these were very quick, but no clusters (continuous seizures) she's needed no Diazepam or Midazalam (rescue meds) during the last 3 weeks.
In herself she seems much brighter and clearer, and her mood is very happy.
A long way to go yet ...I'll keep you posted.
