I'm so sorry! That really sucks! Sending you tons of hugs and good vibes as you deal with this diagnosis and the repercussions on your family plans and everything else it means!
I'm so sorry. I'm glad there is a diagnosis but I'm so very sorry about how that diagnosis is complicating everything about your life right now. I certainly hope you get everything figured out and taken care of.

Don't be surprised if it takes you a while to find the right medication and the right dosage. My husband has nocturnal seizures and it took forever for us to find a regimen that works for him. Hang in there!
Ugh. And the worst part is that alcohol is a risk factor for seizures in epileptics, so I can't even drink away my feelings beyond 1-2 lady glasses of win.
Meh. If you are not having regular seizures, the occasional glass may not be a problem. DH drinks on occasion, usually a glass of wine or a beer here and there though, nothing huge.
Oddly enough, though, avoid the hard stuff. That used to get him every time.
