Epilepsy Awareness Month

Did you know that according to recent estimates, upwards of 50% of people diagnosed with epilepsy, don’t have a clear-cut cause for the condition?

While many face unknown causes, there are a number of factors that can result in the development of epilepsy, including:
– Genetics
– Trauma
– Tumours or brain structure abnormalities
– Infectious diseases
– Metabolism changes
– Stroke

March is Epilepsy Awareness Month, and it’s time to shine a spotlight on this often misunderstood condition. We encourage you to take part and learn more about epilepsy to help break the stigma!
