Guest guest Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 Hi there everyone been sick lately so I haven't been posting much.... I guess I did post last week or the week before about the hospital stay I had due to multiple seizures I had June 4th... I had my neurologist appt yesterday and got the official diagnosis of epilepsy... I was stunned - thought it was a one time thing - some freak accident.... nope. I am freaking out now - have to be on meds at least 5 years... can no longer drive.... I am scared.... he said it wasn't such a big deal but I was thinking - yeah - maybe to you!! I had 4 grand mal -tonic clonic seizures within about 5-6 hours last months... spent days in the hospital. on the last one I quit breathing - hubby said i was purple.... he said he thought he was gonna watch me die in the ER.. he was sooooo freaked..... now all I can think is if it happens again - I am home w/ a 5 year old.... he starts school this year - he has been schooled in what to do - whether he will be able to when the time come who knows as my hubby said they were extremely violent seizures... I was told I have a 5% chance of it not occurring again even with the meds.... the meds would keep it from happening as often.... sheeesh - what a smack in the face. First the implant nightmare ,now this? it may even be related i think - doc Blais' said 30% of my textured shells were missing when he analyzed the implants.... could they have migrated up to my head? who knows.... I am just so disappointed..... anyways talk to you soon shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
