Hi @albendorf, Good Morning
I have seen second, third, and many other opinions, before finding my doctor and the best treatment for my epilepsy and myself. What I can share with you is that being treated by an epileptologist rather than a neurologist has made a huge difference. My epileptologist is also a very open doctor, treating with medical cannabis, yoga, diets, and other instruments. I am back to life!!! Do not give up on searching for the right doctor for you. Unfortunately, I can not help you with an epileptologist's recommendation in the US, as I do live in South America. But perhaps others in this group can.
All the best to you and take care!
Santosha
