Live epilepsy advice online
This page uses Java software to run. Please make sure you download the latest version of the Java software by visiting http://www.java.com/en/.
We regularly run live online advice forums, where trained advisers will answer your epilepsy questions, here, on our website.
Due to popular demand, we are reinstating our evening online advice and information forums. These can be accessed on this page every Tuesday evening between 7 and 9 pm UK Time.
If you would like to discuss any aspect of living with epilepsy, come and talk with our trained advice and information officer. We look forward to welcoming you.
The questions and answers are public. If you want to ask a question privately, please use our freephone or email helplines.
If you have used the online forum, please take a minute to fill in our feedback form. You also get the chance to win a year's membership to Epilepsy Action.
