Hi, my name is leighboy!

My daughter is 31 and my wife has been on epilim most of her life and still is,we were never made aware of any dangers with this drug and our son who was born 4 years later is fine. My daughter was born blue and put on oxygen and placed in the special care unit for a few weeks ,she had a small hole in her heart which was fixed a few years later with an umbrella type tool, she also suffers with finger,toes etc deformed and also has learning difficulties,how can her assessed for this condition and are there any groups i can join to try to get compensation for her. thx

Good Evening & Welcome.
It’s great to meet you today.
Please please let me know if I can help you further with this ????

A brief look on the web suggests that the connection between Epilim and birth defects has been known for up to 40 years and I would expect the Epilepsy Society to have a good idea of what is going on and what is available.
Can you let me know if that helps at all?
Warmest best wishes,
Richard
