When you go to see a doctor, often the visit seems to be over in a flash and you leave wondering exactly what it was the doctor wanted you to do.
Doctors are often quite busy and may not present you with all the necessary information so it is your responsibility to take steps to get the most out of your visit.
If regular visits with your neurologist seem short, and taken up with medical details like seizure control and medication issues, ask in advance for a longer time to be scheduled to deal with other issues that are important to you.
Be prepared…

Just as grown-ups are reluctant to wear Epilepsy ID bracelets – even though they know they’re important, if not essential – kids are even more resistant. They’re “ugly, they’re dorky, they single me out” and they sure aren’t exactly something they’re crazy about wearing.
Well, we’re about to shatter that myth. Because there’s plenty of kids medical alert jewelry that’s not only functional, it’s stylish and fun!
