appointment with the neurologist today....he wants me to consider surgery....SURGERY?!?!? you want to carve into my brain and cut out the scar tissue in my left temporal lobe? eeek! i asked him if the relatively low number of seizures i had justified it - he says it would eliminate the absence seizures as well, not just the convulsive ones....hmmm, maybe it would be worth it. *shrug* we'll see what the video EEG says in november, and then go from there....
