[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 306215, member: 3444"] Loth, he's still unemployed, and he does drive because these are very mild, non-convulsive, non-consciousness-altering events. After talking to him last night, he says there is no placebo in the study, just a different dosing schedule for each patient. I'm confused, and didn't think studies were conducted this way, but then I didn't talk to the nurse who gave him the info. (And then again, husband often mishears or misunderstands medical jargon, so who knows?) I told him he needs to find another neuro for a second opinion, and that we should contact his neurosurgeon for a referral at the hospital where he had his surgery (and in my humble opinion, it's a MUCH better facility both in the level of care and the caliber of its staff -- whereas the other, although it's a teaching hospital, just does not impress me). So I think we're just going to pass on the study and start looking for a new neuro. I appreciate everyone's candid advice here. It is such a blessing to have you all to share your collective experience and knowledge with us. [/QUOTE]
