Is primary epilepsy treated well

summary

Maybe we all think that this disease is far away from all of us. It only exists on TV or in some advertisements. But yesterday, I saw a person who committed the disease. Let's talk about whether the primary epilepsy is cured.

Is primary epilepsy treated well

First: primary (also known as idiopathic) epilepsy refers to the epilepsy without its potential etiology except for genetic factors, which belongs to primary epilepsy. Such as genetic metabolic disorders, cerebral malformations, cerebral palsy, hydrocephalus, agenesis of corpus callosacral body, agenesis of cerebral cortex, heterotopic gray matter, chromosomal abnormalities, etc.

Second: simple absence: when the attack is only manifested as simple absence, no other accompanying symptoms. Experts said that in the analysis of a large group of absence attacks, simple absence is not common, accounting for only about 10%. As long as patients get active and effective treatment, they can achieve good results. Patients must maintain a good attitude and actively cooperate with doctors.

Third: absence with slight clonic component: seen in about half of the absence seizures, mainly manifested as absence seizures accompanied by facial or upper limb slight myoclonic twitch. If myoclonus is a prominent symptom, it should be considered as myoclonic absence. As long as patients get active and effective treatment, they can achieve good results. The doctor must actively cooperate with the patient.

matters needing attention

Although it is not a very good cure for primary epilepsy, we should not lose heart. There are still many successful cases. As a patient, the most important thing is to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment plan and recover as soon as possible.
