An accident made me suffer from epilepsy. Since then, my life has changed completely. I thought there was no possibility of recovery. Later, I insisted on treatment, and now I can live like a normal person. Let's see if epilepsy can be completely cured.

Can epilepsy be cured completely

First of all: epilepsy patients after regular antiepileptic drug treatment, about 70% of the patients with their seizures can be controlled, of which 50% - 60% of the patients can be cured after 2-5 years of treatment, patients can work and live like normal people. Therefore, after suffering from epilepsy, we must actively carry out treatment, and strive to recover as soon as possible.

Secondly: after regular antiepileptic drug treatment, there are still about 20% - 30% patients with drug refractory epilepsy. Surgical treatment of epilepsy provides a new treatment for this part of patients. It is estimated that about 50% of drug-resistant epilepsy patients can be controlled or cured by surgery.

Finally: surgical treatment and neuromodulation therapy can control or cure the seizures of some patients with drug-resistant epilepsy, and improve the prognosis of patients with drug-resistant epilepsy to a certain extent.
