What have you done to live well with epilepsy?

I just haven't let it get in my way. Like I said earlier, I'm very stubborn and I refuse to let something stand in the way of what it is I want to do so you know I raced my bike professionally for years, I won a few Olympic medals and world titles and all of that despite the epilepsy and the side effects of the medication I was on at the time and I would say that the epilepsy made me stronger, it just made me more driven to let people know, in particular those closest to me who at the time said, "you can't do that you have epilepsy" and my answer was: "just watch me".
