Hi @baa
A very good morning to you.
Stress is known to be one of the major triggers to seizures. Perhaps you continue to have seizures for different reasons: medications and other seizure triggers. What is again your type of epilepsy? I ask that because there are some types of epilepsy that have a higher rate of being refractory (drugs do not control 100% of the seizures), like Temporal Lobe Epilepsy with Mesial Sclerosis (the one I have).
Have you been sleeping well? Sleep is another very common trigger of seizures. For some people heat can also be a trigger and I know it has been pretty warm over there.
Learning about my triggers has helped me a lot to manage and avoid my seizures. I recommend the book "Taking Control of your Seizures". Here are two links with more information on this book:

Hello Chris. All that is in my physician notes and summaries is Focal Seizures. I accessed them all back to 2022 and was surprised. I believe there is significant info not documented.
