The epilepsy diary Laura is referring to is a good start. You can also ask your doctor for a video-EEG. The doctor will monitor you visually and by EEG for 3 days while you stay in the hospital. Using this method the epileptologist - a doctor specialized in epilepsy - found out that I still had seizure-like activity while I slept and adjusted my medication accordingly.
Hello,
As Lauradot said, keep a seizure diary - how your feel at the time, physical symptoms. how long they last until you feellbetter. Any possible triggers eg not eating enough / tiredness / stress.
You can also google British Epilepsy Association for info
