My daughter was diagnosed with focal epilepsy in April and since 

then she's been on medication to try control the seizures. The dose was put up 4 weeks after starting due to the medication not stopping the seizures but it did reduce them. it seems now after around 4 weeks that the seizures are becoming more frequent again. Is the normal? I've been asked for a diary and videos for next appointment with consultant but very had to catch the seizure due to them been so quick. Any advice please
