Not necessarily. It will depend on the type and cause of epilepsy. Some children get epilepsy which stops when they grow up. Some people get epilepsy as a result of a head injury. If the head injury heals their seizures may stop. Some people will have their epilepsy for life. They could have it for all of their life, or get it at some point and then have it for the rest of their life. Epilepsy can be controlled by medication, so some people get their epilepsy under control and if they stick to looking after themselves, they will not have seizures although technically they still have epilepsy. Each case is different and it has to be monitored by the person and their doctor.
