I got Worse

Hi everybody, I never come back here because my health is not helping me! After my brain surgery in May last year I never get fully recovered. I have epilepsy and it’s affecting my heart, I have an appointment with a neurologist and some exams to do to because of the heart condition. I was talking to an adviser for scope to find another job, but I got very sick, I was in the hospital, and on of the time they transfer  me to another hospital because of the heart condition. It hasn’t be  easy, I’m a chef and I can do the hours that I normally do. I’m only working three, four days a week doing four or three hours or six. I never thought that I was going to have so many health problems, after the tumour, but it could be much worse I’m walking and talking and I don’t have any cognitive deficiency. In March I’ve a MRI I hope everything it’s ok it’s a benign tumour so I think it’s going to be ok. Thank you for being here,  I can get of my chest and it feels good !! 
Take care xx

    Thankyou for sharing your story with us.

    You certainly have had a lot to cope with.

    Are you having to wait for the MRI before returning to work?

    I wish you all the best for a good outcome

    xxxx.

    I’m start working normally a few months ago but with this condition it’s impossible, so I’m still working but I’m doing less hours. 

    This is going to be my third MRI

    Thank you 

    Be safe

    The seizures have stop, I’m still taking the Kappra and another pill, I’m switching meds gradually.
