What is it like to have a VNS?
I am a 15 year old girl (5'4" 114lbs) and I have uncontrolled absence and grand mal seizures. I went to the neurologicalist and as usual when I went in they only upped my dosage on my medications. Though, my doctor mentioned a VNS (Vagnos Nerological System) I feel like this is my only hope at this point seeing as I'm on so much medication and it is still not helping. I'm on 750milagrams for Ethoseximed and 350 for Limotragine (sorry for incorrect spellings I don't have the bottles in front of me) They are starting me on a third seizure medication and at this point I'm terrified of what this medication will do to my organs in the long run...
