For the past four years, Kerry woman Karin O'Shea has been living in an 'absolute nightmare’ consisting of daily seizures and constant fatigue. She was unable to walk and had memory issues and muscle pain.

She had to give up work as a secondary school teacher and was so sick she was almost totally housebound.
