PAST HISTORY : I am an epileptic patient for the last 40 years and under medication. I have visited the doctor regarding my tooth extraction and they have suggested root canal treatment. Kindly advise if I can undergo this treatment.

You can undertake Root canal treatment provided you take your normal anti epileptic medicine and avoid apprehension, fear, anxiety with premedication of mood elevators. Getting a clear picture from your dentist how RC is done so that you know the procedure will definitely help you. Alternatively one can take this treatment under short time general anaesthesia.
