> I took off till Wed I and was within 1/4 mile of that same Convention Center which I hadn't been to in three days.I was going to work and it began to rain awfully hard.I wonder now if I had a seizure and fell onto sidewalk.I thought I only wanted to get to my destination w/o being tied up.A person began to talk as he followed,I talked back to him to him,he never ID'ed himself as a policeman.Even though I was rushing I wonder why he was there in plain clothes,if I knew that he was a policeman it would've gotten my attention.Maybe my attention wasn't working too well.Other officers to arrive,I'm still not aware of any uniforms or police cars.I'm not even very aware of that location before being taken to the E.R. at Univ.of MD hospital at 8am Wed.I told nurses that of times I was due doses of Vimpat and Keppra XR.I stayed in one room till 1AM Thurs when I was moved for an hour to a second & then came a third one.

> I went to work Friday and began to cry as I told the only one of the two co-workers who'd had epilepsy and a successful surgery.I felt better Fri than I do Sun probably cause I was released from medicine then.Next Tue&Thurs I'll be getting records from hospital & especially the police. to see what happened,Did I have a seizure w/o my knowledge.On Fri I start a 72hr Ambulatory EEG with Orrin Devinsky,MD in the Manhattan section of NY city.
