Majority of neurologist don’t prescribe eptoin these days. Epilepsy diagnosis is based mainly on detailed history as there is no diagnostic test for it.
See a neurologist (if you haven’t so far) and reconsider diagnosis. If it is a type of epilepsy (there arrow than hundred different types!) then he/she may consider alternative medicine
