Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Helen Goodman (Labour), on Thursday, 11 May 2006, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 50 members in total.
EPILEPSY ACTION
That this House welcomes Epilepsy Action's `Take Control' campaign, which seeks to help people with epilepsy in the North East to take control of their condition; notes that, of the 456,000 people living with epilepsy in the UK, as many as 82,000 who are currently having seizures could be seizure free if they were receiving the best possible care; further notes that as many as 105,000 probably have an incorrect diagnosis; recognises that the best way for these problems to be addressed is for the person with epilepsy to see a specialist; and invites hon. Members to encourage those with epilepsy with ongoing seizures or experiencing bad side effects from their medicine to seek a review meeting with a specialist.
