Hi @DannyMoore,
I'm so sorry for the delayed response and that no one has got back to you about this.
Epilepsy Action, the Epilepsy Foundation and the Epilepsy Society all have information on VNS which you might find useful.
I hope this helps!

Hi, My husband has a VNS. I can tell you it is has been a godsend for both of us. It has given him some control over his siezures for the first time in his life. He was unsure at first like you, whether to have it, but you have nothing to lose as it can be switched off or removed if you really do not like it. You still take your medication and it is not a cure but it is a clever little gadget.
