In addition, the first patient also suffered stigma for several years. Rational polytherapy let not only to the clinical benefit but also to the overall quality of life improvement. Herein, we would like to demonstrate how important it is for the patients with the life-long disorder like epilepsy to unceasingly communicate, propose new solutions, administer novel antiepileptics and not to give up reassessing the overall health status.
