epilepsy because my neurologist feels it
should not be.obviously the waiting times
are enormous here and i would like to get
my health back. no medication is giving me

It doesn't seem likely that the weakness
and fatigue you are experiencing is
associated with epilepsy. These symptoms
are probably caused by the emotional
stress you are experiencing while you are
waiting for the results of your
examination.
