His understand your concern. I had gone through your query. Usually absence seizure has good prognosis, and it will decrease as age progress. If you stick on treatment properly and absence seizure usually require 3 years of seizure free interval after taking medicines. I hope you will do it, and it will get up to almost totally absent for a lifetime. Still have a query then feel free to ask. Happy to help you. Thank you. Take care.
