Bev,
I have seizures that are very painful,So painful that I would shy away from
anyone who was trying to help me during them.I had 1 Grand Mal where I knew and
felt everything that was happening to me.I could explain every feeling and every
hit that my body was doing.I was 3 months pregnant and took myself off of my
meds up to that point as I was worried what the meds were going to do to my
baby.

Subject: [epilepsy] Seizure turned bad
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@yahoo.com
