Abstract<br />
Epilepsy is a neurotic sickness that 1 in 200 people will get. But with epilepsy there isn’t just one set of<br />
symptoms. There are two major groups, cramps and absences. The typical reason epilepsy accurse is<br />
because of the neurotransmitter or the receptors which are too important components in the way our<br />
neurons communicate. This means that if there is too much or too little of one neurotransmitter it can<br />
cause a seizure.<br />
We do have a couple of options when it comes to curing the sickness. Most cases are cured by medicine but<br />
some people do not respond to the medicine that they are given which makes it necessary to operate.<br />
Before the operation we need to determine which parts of the brain have to be tinkered with. Therefore a<br />
series of test are usually run to find out where the origination point of the seizures are.<br />
Epilepsy seems to be a relatively <strong>new</strong>ly discovered sickness which means that we don’t understand<br />
everything about it just yet.<br />
