I'm not a Doctor and I don't have epilepsy. But if I were you I would take lots of CBD and THC oil. I have heard that CBD and THC oil helps prevent epilepsy.

What is your epilepsy like without cannabis?
are you on other AED's?
what strain are you using and what method is best for administering?
I don’t have epilepsy. I have Bipolar. I take AED for Bipolar. I take Sodium Valproate.

I also use cannabis for the bipolar depression.

The AED only stops agitation and getting too manic.
It does make me a bit foggy and I use caffeine fairly heavily in the morning because of this. But having said that I have always struggled in the morning and need caffeine to cope with feelings of fatigue.
The cannabis oil I take stops me feeling totally defeated or stressed and helps me to sleep.

I have not noticed any bad side effects from using both and the Valproate fog isn’t made any worse by the cannabis as the cannabis does process through my body faster than the AED.

I make a diluted RSO that I put in dropper bottles. Use a few different strains but c99 is probably my favourite at the moment.

I have very bad seizures, more rso and stronger dosages worked and reduced my seizures, reduced my rx I was on but also Improved my current life.

I don’t recommend singular extracts of cannabinoids or even singular strain, I am a caregiver to high needs patients and I work with a dr for recommendations/referrals . for me I trialed cbd or cbd/cbg dominate mixture rso extracts , than thc only dominate strains and both did good things but didn’t show nowhere near the effective % on almost all rx needs vs 1/3 cbd/1/3 cbg 1/3 thc dominate rso extract . I believe in full spectrum vs singular cannabinoids anyday. From pain to sleep to cancer to seizures and anything that cannabis help. It seemed to be better with more diversity vs singular .I wouldn’t explain the mixes at first and I logged it, the mixes work better imo

Issue with for example smoking many cannabinoids or terps is the degrading at higher temps , like cbg is 115f! Or cbd 180f , it’s even hard to cook at that so making rso imo is def key to using such.
