    • About Me

      I had a seizure when I was 6 months old. I never had another one until I was 25. After being diagnosed and realizing what an aura feels like, I believe I was having them since my mid to late teens. I have one son who I am very proud of. I am currently working with the Ticket to Work program to see about going to work on a part-time basis. I was wanting to go full-time. I had one week to go before I could drive again, then my seizures started coming back more frequently.

      For replying to the advice. Like I said we have the passes, but it is the more infirm that get door to door service like over 60's or anyone with more severe dissabilities. Why in America don't you have these services?

      Thank you so much for sharing your story! I will take that into account, and start tracking too. Here is to no more seizures!

      God bless you too! Matthew 4:23-25 (New International Version)

      Jesus Heals the Sick
      23Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness among the people. 24News about him spread all over Syria, and people brought to him all who were ill with various diseases, those suffering severe pain, the demon-possessed, those having seizures, and the paralyzed, and he healed them. 25Large crowds from Galilee, the Decapolis,[a] Jerusalem, Judea and the region across the Jordan followed him.

      My seizures tend to occur mostly around menstal cycles. I think stress plays a big factor also. I finally found a gyn willing to help. She put me on some progesterone. The seizures did not stop, but the amnesic affect went from 1-2 hours to about 15 minutes.

      Treatments

      Keppra Working / Worked
      Lamictal Working / Worked
      Phenobarbital Working / Worked
      Zonegran Working / Worked
      This put me in the hospital for 4 days. I totally flipped out on it. I was fine one minute and I tried to have my husband arrested the next.
