Fatima Sana Shaikh opened up about her struggle with epilepsy, and how she used medication and exercise to cope with it. Sharing her journey on Instagram, she said, “I have to go a bit slow. But I can do everything. There are some odd and tough days. But I have been fortunate enough to work with people I have been dying to work with. And this has not affected my passion. In fact, it pushes and drives me to work harder.” She also added that her pet, Bijlee, is her therapy dog. When a fan stated that epilepsy patients are made to smell stinking shoes, she said, “This is a myth. Please don’t do this. It’s traumatic to come out of a seizure. The last thing you want is to wake up to a stinking shoe. People have done this to me.”
