Parent's Rheumatoid Arthritis May Put Child at Risk for Epilepsy
Epilepsy needs to be better understood
Understanding what causes epilepsy is important for researchers. For example, if we could figure out what kinds of epilepsy are caused by an overactive immune system attacking yourself, we could potentially find an appropriate treatment for This. There are antibodies, steroids, and other types of medication that specifically target the immune system to make it less robust. Perhaps we could use these to treat autoimmune-induced epilepsy.
