Hello and welcome to Epi-Center! Today, we're talking about comorbidities (or co-morbidity), or the presence of one or more additional conditions that occur alongside a primary condition. This episode will help you understand exactly what comorbidities are, why they’re so common in epilepsy, how they can look different from what you might expect, and why the solutions that exist still aren’t working as well as they should.
