Question

A patient inquires about the options for epilepsy treatment and wants to know if there is a possibility of a cure.

Answer

There are various methods for treating epilepsy, including medication and surgical treatment. Medication treatment is a common and progressive approach, but it may be a lengthy process. While effective, many patients may give up during the treatment. On the other hand, surgical treatment can yield quick results, but it also comes with certain risks, usually reserved for cases where medication is ineffective. We do not recommend surgery unless all other methods have failed.
