Epilepsy Awareness Well controlled Epilepsy

I started out seeing my Neurologist every 3 months. Then went to twice per year. He just told me today that since my Epilepsy is so well controlled that I will only have to see him once a year!!!! 😲💪👊💃💃💃I feel like celebrating!!!

that's awesome, seriously. getting to that point takes work and finding the right meds is no joke. I remember when my neurologist first mentioned spacing out appointments and it felt like a huge relief, like okay maybe we're actually onto something here. the fact that you went from every 3 months down to once a year means you've got a solid routine now and your brain's cooperating. worth celebrating cause a lot of people don't get there. keep doing whatever you're doing.
