Adverse Reactions

Idiopathic epilepsy is a betrayal of the body by the brain. Its best known manifestation is the grand mal seizure, which steals consciousness and drops the body with violent muscle contractions. It's rarely cured and fights all efforts at control. It often waits until the mind believes the latest treatment has worked and the seizures have ended, then strikes again. The worst cases are constant cycles of seizures and treatments, followed by more seizures and more treatments. It's a matter of time before a seizure-induced injury or death occurs. Steve Coughlin is a worst case. But his new doctor is known worldwide for treating previously uncontrolled epilepsy, so he considers himself lucky. Then, without his permission, she releases his records and a series of frightening events occur that endanger the sanity and lives of both him and the woman he loves, Melisssa. He doesn't know if they're the targets of a conspiracy or victims of purely random events. He only knows that if he doesn't stop them, it won't matter. It'll be too late for both of them.
