My name is Walter and I had a right temporal lobectomy in April of 2003. Since then, I no longer have partial complex seizures like I had before. In February, I had a grand mal seizure, and have had a total of 3 such seizures since President's Day weekend this year. I had an EEG just 2 days ago. I'm awaiting the results.
Also, I have problems with my memory. Can anyone relate?

I had a right temporal lobectomy in March of 1999. What questions do you have? I would be happy to answer them. Seriously, any questions at all.
