Hi everyone,

I have focal aware seizures 2–3 times a day and have had the Responsive Neurostimulation System for 9 months now. I honestly don’t feel much of a difference. My doctor said there’s been a very slight improvement in the data, but I can’t really tell day to day.

I’m on Lamotrigine and Xcopri, and my seizures are drug-resistant.

I’m feeling really scared that this won’t get better. Has anyone had a slow start with RNS and then seen improvement later? I’d really appreciate any stories or reassurance.
