Hi Elizabeth
Ok about your szs, they sound very familiar, yes I have a
doctor's appointment for early next week, I need to get this
checked in to, something is changing. I haven't seen a
doctor for my eyes for 7 or 8 years, there is little they
can do but it is clear to me that things are changing, I
have had ep for so long but it doesn't mean that it should
be forgotten. Today, not for the first time, I had a kind of
flash back, I had just moved away from the sink after
cleaning my teeth, my head started to swim, it was like I
was seeing pictures. I spoke to someone at the encephalitis
society and he thinks it is definite brain activity, not
sure what. It was like I was have millions of pictures
whizzing through my head, because I am blind I can't see but
the signals are getting through and are not being translated
but this may be the build up of signals kind of escaping,
really puzzling. I have had it several times over the last
few years. It only lasts for a minute or less.
Regards
Adrien

Hi!
That sounds like my classic seizures. Sometimes I feel
queasy, sometimes not. But I usually have some concentration
issues, feel like something's off, etc... Light can also
bother me (like filtering) and has triggered seizures. I
would call your doctor and let him/her know what happened.
It may just be a fluke, especially if you're not really
stressed, you've gone to bed on time, etc.. But maybe you
need a med change. I wouldn't totally discredit the light
this time. If it keeps happening though, I agree--go see a
doctor, which I assume you already do for your eyes.

Hi
Yesterday I had one of my regular epileptic storms, I felt
ok the day before but I have been thinking back and the
build up to this seizure have been obvious, stroppy,
irritable, impatient, and others. I lost concentration,
focus, and I had a muzzy head most of the day. I also felt
queasy most of the day which is unusual for me. Also, when
the sun comes round to my side of the house, it is very
bright and the bright lights seem to aggravate me. Not only
when I had the seizure but other times. I spoke with the
epilepsy action earlier on and they suggest that the bright
lights may be caused by something else. What do you guys
think about this? I am blind so I can't see but when I face
any bright or flashing lights such as when you are driving
along the road and you pass trees and the sun is flickering
between the trees, I can't look at the light. I just need to
know what this may be. My eyes work even though I am blind,
it is the brain that is damaged.
Regards
Adrien
