I'm 22 years old and a senior at Middle Tennessee State University. I was diagnosed with epilepsy in 7th grade and shortly after put on a medication that made me gain a great deal of weight over a short period of time. To be exact, over 60 lbs the 1st year I was on it, and a little more the next year. Though I was seizure free for 2 years, gaining that much weight when you're 5'3" in high school isn't the best thing. So, I got off that medication and have been battling seizures and losing that weight ever since. Perhaps this support system will finally help me!
