Mom is sick, epilepsy, USA travel how to prepare?
She has episodes once or twice a year. She has a visitor visa but is scared to travel since she might be needed to rushed to hospital.
She has other host of issues like diabetes and high blood pressure as well.
Is there any insurance i can get that will cover for her in US?
Suggestion? to make her 1 month or so stay safe and easy?
my mother suffers from epilepsy. She visited us last year and stayed around 5 months. Luckily she did not have any issues when she was here.
I do not think there is any good insurance that works for visitors, too much cost vs very little coverage, esp where I am (TX). Hate to say this, but my plan was emergency visit if anything was needed...
Seizure can be controlled by medication temporarily so sudnot be an issue while travel, no insurance will cover preexisting health issues , so it's waste of time to worry about it . Carry all necessary medication from Nepal including antibiotics and put her in strict discipline ( eating habits , medication etc ) n c will be fine .
The worst outcome is you have to rush her emergency in sever conditions.hospital cannot deny her treatment ..no temporary visitor ever pays emergency bills that comes in thousands .
ईडिभीजीले पहिलो पटक लाग्यो यस्तो सिरियस कुरामा आफ्नो अमुल्य बिचार दिएको। मान्छे नराम्रो त हैन। तर कहिले काही चै कुरा सुन्दा अजिब नै लाग्छ। खैर। एपिलेप्सीको बारेमा एपिलेप्सीको बारेमा थाहा भको मान्छेले मात्र भन्न सक्छ, आफ्नो घर-परिवार, नजिकको मान्छेलाई यो बिमारी छ भने मात्र बोल्न सकिन्छ। मलाई पनि केही आईडिया त्यसरी नै भयो भनौ।
हिमालजी, बर्षको १-२ चोटि मात्र एपिसोड भको हो भने, धेरै सिरियस लेभलको एपिलेप्सी नहोला हैन? किन भने एकदम सिरियस लेभलमा पनि एपिलेप्सी हुन सक्छ मान्छेलाई, दिनमै १-२ चोटि देखी १०-२० पटक सम्म सिजर हुन सक्छ अनी आफ्नो जिबन जिउन पनि एकदम गाहरो पनि हुन सक्छ। आफ्नो सराउन्डिङका मान्छेहरु पनि अफेक्टेड हुन्छन। औषधी टाइममा लिन नछुटाएर ट्राभल गर्दा बेस होला नि। मनमा डर त रहन्छ तर पोजिटिभ सोचेर ट्राभल गर्नुपर्छ नि, आफुलाई के कुराले सिजर ट्रिगर गर्न सक्छ, अभोइड गरेर (यो कुरा त वहाँलाई थाहा नै होला।)
बाँकी ईडिभीजीले माथि भन्नुभको कुरा म समर्थन गर्छु।
