One of my dearest friends has epilepsy. He is not a cyclist. Just a lazy guy... all he does is surfing, kite boarding, spear fishing, kayaking, rock climbing... While I've never biked with him, I've repeatedly trusted my life with him on rock climbs that half way up I thought to myself "WHAT ARE YOU DOING???? THIS IS TOO HIGH!!" But that was about my own personal panic, not about him at all. He has learned his body over the years and understands when he can and cannot push. And in my mind, has defied all logic as to how hard any person's body can be pushed, let alone a guy with epilepsy.

I'm actually an occupational therapist in both traditional and alternative settings. You might look into CranioSacral Therapy if you're interested in a non-traditional option. I'm always really excited to see clients shift out of experiences their doctors said they would always have.
