Yes. I have been receiving acupuncture now for 2 months, once a week. My seizures are now to 1 in every 5 days and the severity of them is also much lower... which is great for me.
I would recommend it to everyone and encourage you to at least give it 3 - 4 weeks.

But I would not recommend replacing your mediation with acupuncture. Continue taking your medicine, just use acupuncture as a supplement.
