Dear Bevery,
I ahd a really bad seizure like this years back. I was pacing back and fourth in my apt. . My wife called EMS and I turned them dowbn. then I blacked out having a eally baqd grande mal. I hit a thick wooden coffee table knocking it over. Then it took about 5 fire fighters to hold me down and stablize me. All my meds and blood levels were fine. Though I was kept in the hosp. with round the clock care. They had to pad my bed rails with waterproof bed sheeting pads. I was given another drug too.. Though the cause was never figured out either. I ahd all the tests too. I didn't get any injury luckely. So just take it one dayu at a time. I feel sound set mine off since i have accute hearing.
take care now,
Marty

> Hi my name is Bev , I have had epilepsy & seizures since I was a small child. My seizures were controlled up until about 4 months ago, when I started having break thru seizures. I continued to have numerous seizures daily. Friday afternoon I had a grand-mal seizure that lasted over 30 minutes. I was fully aware of what my body was doing I just could do nothing about it. During the seizure, the side of my head continually hit the side of my coffee table. Finally, when my body decided to stop seizing, I ended up with a severe & massive lump on the right side of my head as well as pain, well past the 10 on the pain scale. I went to the hospital, had tests after tests, cat scans and blood work, all in all, my blood work was normal, then when it came to the cat scan, not all was roses. A spot was found on the left side of my brain. Now I am a basketcase hoping and praying that God will intervene. Anyone have any suggestions on how to keep calm. beverly mrsrickwill@...
