Epilepsy Is a common disease, 'tut, because of its characterises aature of developing into convulsions, individuals afflicted with the condition are apt to be {shunted by general society. This is unfortunate, since the disease affects persons in all walks of life and in till intellectual and economic levels, according to the educational committee of the Ulinois State Medical Society in a Health Talk. There is probably more misunlerstanding, more incorrect beiefs, more fear and more unjustified discrimination associated with his disease and the people who uiffer from it than any other illness. This is particularly unfortunate because in 80 to 85 per cent of the cases it is possible with proper treatment to abolish or control the spells from which these patients suffer, permitting them to <ead normal and active lives. In fact there are many persons with epilepsy who are married, have families, hold important business nositions and are engaged in varous professions. The word epilepsy means seizure. Occurring (n two forms, one type of seizure, Grand Mai, occurs as a result of an irritation of the brain. From the brain a nervous discharge spreads down from the brain through the spinal cord and then out through the nerves to the muscles in the arms, the legs and the body generally. The action results In f convulsion causing the victim to toaa consciousness and the muscles to stiffen and twitch. The second type of seizure, known as Petit Mai or minor spell, is often so mild that It may pass unnoticed by people outside the family. The individual suddenly stops what he is doing and becomes unaware of what 1s going on ahout him. Although the generalized convulsive seizures or major spells seldom cease permanently without treatment, the minor spells or Petit Mai are most common and most frequent during childhood, tend to diminish as the patient grows older and may even cease as he becomes an adult. In epilepsy, each case must be treated individually. There are many different forms of treatment and they must be titled to the perticular case. What is suitable for one is often unsuccessful in another. And again proper treatment does not depend solely on thf prescription of the proper medication by physician, but thorough cooperation by the patient is essential. It is rather common fo*- patients to go for a year or so after beginning treatment without a single attack and then suffer from one 6r a series of seizures. This occurs because the patient haB efther decided himself that he is well or has been inconsistent in applying the treatment the physician has indicated. The consumption of alcoholic beverages will also cause attacks in patients whose seizures have otherwise ben controlled. And then It 1s easier to control the qtells It proper and adequate treatment Is begun early. Very often it is difficult to obtain satisfactory relief for a patient wha has had spells for several years without proper control. Graad Mai or Petit Mai are what might be termed ordinary epilepsy. There are other epileptic seizures which If noted for the first time in adult life may he traced to some other condition, involving insufficient amounts of sugar in the blood. Insufficient supply of blood to the ttraln because of heart disease and so on. Most cases can be managed adequately by sksioti.
