Having had epilepsy for approx. 35yrs. & having gone through all the tribulations as a teenager. The day I started to accept it was the first day I started to live properly & did not let the seizures dominate my life. I have broken my neck as a result of a seizure, got on with life, travelled the world twice on my own.
The only worrying thing at this moment & for approx. 20yrs now is my sex life.
I have met someone now, wish to have a normal relationship but cannot perform (i.e. E.D.).
I do believe it is my medication! What about the use of Viagra? My blood pressure is normal, nothing else to worry about. Does anyone know? I do not wish to go to my doctor with this as he would refer me on!
