I was diagnosed with Focal Epilepsy at age 78yrs!! I go to Mayo Clinic Phoenix. At first they thought it was Migraine Amnesia but the medication did not work and then after more tests it was Focal Epilepsy and it was two years ago this month I started taking Keppra and have Not had another Serizure. I see my Mayo Clinic Neurologist every 6 months.. He actually lowered my medication some which helped not being so tired. Mayo Clinic has been great for other medical issues I have. I feel very grateful.

Good Morning
I'm truly sorry you're going through this. I understand those memory gaps all too well – I experience them too, especially when my seizures aren't well-controlled. The good news is that once you begin working with a neurologist and find the right treatment, these gaps may improve. I'm hopeful that will be the case for you. 🙏
Can I ask – have you experienced any other episodes since June? And did the hospital prescribe any medication when you were discharged?
I'm hoping you'll get clear answers and a diagnosis soon.
