Hi. I've had the VNS for 4yr now and am doing great. I used to have seizures about 4-5 times a month. With the VNS and medicine I've only had about 2 due to the pharmacy not giving me my meds. I have 3 magnets, 1 in my room, 1 at work and 1 in the living room. My 10yr old knows how to use them.

Hi @tashamascari,
First, welcome to the Epilepsy and Seizures group!
Thank you for sharing your VNS experience with us — this can be very valuable to other members who may be considering this option. I'm very glad to hear it has been working well for you.
Would you mind sharing what kind of seizures you had before the VNS implant?
Chris
