Thanks for posting this. I wish it were helpful in my epilepsy.

So does that mean you’ve tried it but it was not successful?

No, I suppose I should not have made that hasty conclusion. It was based on the trade-of value of the surgery vs. my amount of seizures and quality of life. Also I have a feeling my AVM scar tissue is not treatable. (accessibility and age).
But you’ve made me realize I could very well be wrong. (It’s happened one or two other times in my life.) Thanks, Greg

I’m sure it won’t do the job for everyone but it was an exciting article that I thought might be of use to some people. Equally, it may be a treatment already offered in other countries: the article indicates it is new in England, which may be of limited news to people outside of England!

It is better than having one option-- meds.
