Re: [epilepsy] Vertigo&Seizures

chris,

Hi! Thank you for the Happy New Year; hope you had a good one too.I know
what you mean about the brain freezes. I have them before too. My bf when he
1st starting getting vertigo, the ringing in his ear was the thing that was
noticeable. It got louder and louder with him. He used to be a carpenter,
built houses and everything, but he got to where he couldn't stand up.He
loses his balance a lot now. That was something that changed his life.I have
had some terribly bad headaches after seizures, but if those symptons start
getting worse you might ought to ask the doctor if vertigo has anything to
do with it.The nausea and eveything I have seen him deal with. Hope this
helps. Talk to you later.
Tammy
