my husband has temporal lobe epilepsey (complex partial seizures) and it seems like his seizures come in rashes, and the other day one was so bad he said he was hearing a heartbeat, and was smelling bad things. Is there a way other than medication He can avoid having them?

hi, sorry no he needs to take his medication to control the seizures. if hes having side effects, he can be switched to a different anti-epileptic drug. good luck!

He needs to continue his meds. If they are not working he needs to speak with his neurologist. He may be a candidate for a temporal recession. However, he will still be on meds after the surgery. There are many new drugs today that were not around 10 years ago.
