I can assure you its not hilarious for the sufferer.
I had Epilepsy when I was younger, and the feeling of having a seizure isn't nice at all.
In my case I could feel a seizure coming on with a feeling of fear in my stomach, then I would have a tense up feeling, and start running around my room, although it mostly happened at night.

Aahahahahhhahahahaa! No, what gave you that idea? Are we watching the same show
Seriously, inept is what I think of when I combine Andrew and business.
It's a story rapidly going from serious to Neighbours dumb, what else would we expect. Everything in this show has a lifespan of three weeks unless Kate is involved and then it goes on longer than sanity allows.
I don't like his hair but that's just me, as someone who is on anticonvulsant meds I would never go on something if I didn't know really what it was as those drugs can have terrible side effects. Plus why isn't Aiden talking to Karl about this as it isn't breaking patient confidentiality? Also why is Andrew going to be getting blood tests for medicine levels?
PS I'm glad someone else mentioned David Platts epilepsy lol which seems to have dissappeared.

Hopefully not, I think soaps are generally better at things like this and general continuity than they used to be. Susan's MS comes back into the story from time to time and hasn't suddenly been forgotten about so the signs are good.

I am a regular watcher and I can't really remember it being mentioned but I could have missed it.
I think Andrews diagnosis is (sadly) being used to get him sympathy after letting Paul make Chris's life hell by not confessing about his role in the accident. This would annoy me as you can still hate a guy with epilepsy the same as I still can't stand whiney Sophie even after the accident.
