Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE)

Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE) is a common seizure disorder caused by abnormal electrical activity in the temporal lobes of the brain, which are involved in memory, emotion, and hearing. It often presents with complex symptoms such as staring spells, confusion, unusual sensations, or emotional changes. TLE can be triggered by specific stimuli or occur spontaneously. While medications help many individuals control seizures, some may require surgery. Diagnosis involves EEG monitoring and brain imaging. Overall, TLE is a manageable condition with appropriate medical care, allowing many to maintain an active and fulfilling life.
