Greetings, and thank you for allowing us access to your expertise. My question is: Is there a connection between stuttering and epilepsy? I am a PWS, and have been so all my life. At the age of 16, I had an epileptic seizure and I've had approximately 3 per year over the next 30 or so years of my life. I noticed that, with the onset of the epilepsy my stuttering has become more pronounced. This leads me to wonder if the two (stuttering and epilepsy) are somehow connected. Your thoughts?
