Asking for Brother, Male, 22 years old, Bahawalnagar

Dear Doctors, my brother is 22 years of age. at the age of 6 months he had typhoid fever damaging his mental growth. He cannot talk (he has his special language for us) but physically he was fine. He can understand everything said in mother tongue. At the age of 15 he started having attackes of epilepsy. In the start they last for 5-10 sec. But gradually the situation got worse and by the age of 17-18 he was having serious attacks, falling down like a statue, fits lasting upto 5 mins and urination. He as attending a special education school those days, we had to cancel that. We consulted Dr. Rimzi (From Multan, passed away a few years ago) and he suggested Hitop 25mg, Seizunial and Dipakan 2tb 2 times\day. We are using these medicines since then, but they are not the permanent solution. They just make him numb, even with age growth they were losing there effect. The problem of urination is almost solved though. We consulted a Neuro specialist few weeks ago and he suggested to in

We consulted a Neuro specialist few weeks ago and he suggested to increase the dosage of same medicine 25 to 50 mg, 2 ts to 4 ts 3 times\day.
Is there a permanent cure for epilepsy for him?
Thanks in advance for your worthy time and response.
Kind regards.

Very sad to hear the history. Now the target is to control the fits. Not to forget that in your brother as the time is passing on it is getting difficult to overcome the fits. I will modify the medications and upto four different drugs can be tried and if the fits are not controlled then surgical intervention becomes the necessary. Latter is not that simple by the way . Now give me the exact amount of different drugs he is taking these days so that I will give my plan if medications .

Dear Sir Khalid,
My mother is having some issues regarding headache, backache and insomnia. Her age is around 50. I would like to ask if these issues are of your competency? and if you can evaluate both patients in single appointment?
Thanks for your time and patience.
