Send us Fan MailWhen the medical system left him in no-man’s-land, Steve took his recovery into his own hands. After surviving rock bottom, including severe mental health struggles and a gruelling 14-month wait for specialist care, Steve was facing up to 70 functional seizures every single day. In this episode, we explore how he turned a desperate situation into a digital lifeline. Steve shares the story behind Neurolog, the free app he built to track the "untrackable."In this episode, we discuss navigating the space between neurology and psychology, how Steve built an app while battling 60+ mini-seizures daily, how emoji-logging helped him reduce his seizures by over 90%, and Neurolog’s journey from a personal tool to a research partner with the University of Oxford. Link to the Neurolog website and App:https://www.neuro-log.com/https://www.neurolog.app/authPresented by Clinical Neuropsychologist and researcher, Dr Lana Higson. This podcast is for informational and educational purposes only and is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
