Re: [epilepsy] Circulation

 

It seems like the circulation system would be an important factor in the
seizures. One day when I was have my blood checked, the lab technician had
trouble finding a vein to put the needle in. She told me the medicine I was
on shrinks your blood veins and makes them harder to find. It seems like
with them that small, the circulation would not do as well. My hands and
feet stay cold and get tingly every now and then. Take care.
