Seizure log form

Common Questions and Answers about Seizure log form

seizure

Avatar n tn There is no pattern or noticable frequency to these headaches which leads me to believe it is not medicine-related. Could this be another form of seizure or is this common with this type of epilepsy? Could these be some form of migraines? I get migraines and, other than the nausea and vomiting, they didn't really sound like migraines. What could this be?
Avatar f tn In the meantime get a notebook and log the experiences and the duration. In some people these are triggered by light on the optic nerve, usually flickering light and usually (but not always) in the red spectrum (blink lights on a fire engine, or the flicker of a flourescent bulb or a CRT computer screen are common culprits). Wearing dark or polarized eyeglasses sometimes helps with the problem.
626360 tn?1221955245 are a mild form of epilepsy which is a form of a seizure. They can range anywhere from mild to severe. It is important to get her in to a neurologist because although they may be mild it could most definitally be causing the damage a severe seizure could cause. I have not yet to take Emma in but I do feel better with that knowledge. If you would like to know more let me know how I can help.
Avatar f tn My suggestion would be to log everything about the seizure from what brings it on to how long it last. Also, log how long the dog is stiff afterwards. Pretty much anything you can log will help the vet. Also if possible videotape the next epsiode to show your vet exactly what is happening. My vet told me to help the dog during this to take them to a quiet room with no noise or bright flashy lights.

Avatar f tn Hi, If you suspect that he had any form of trauma during seizure attack then its better to go for CT/MRI brain.You can consult your pediatrician for adding of phenytoin or phenobarbitone.
Avatar n tn i want to know if there are other solutions that are effective. also if there is something good to do during a seizure. i give her a spoonful of natural van ice cream after each one. is that okay or good?
Avatar f tn However, a single day miss of the medicine, gave me a third seizure, which made me aware that missing the meds all together will anyways cause a seizure, and that the dosage has to be slowly reduced before completely finishing the dosage. After 2 yrs of taking Valprid, my doctor switched me to Lamosyn...again 400 mg, due to Valprid's side effects such as weight gain. Lamosyn was also equally good. At the end of 3 yrs i.e.
Avatar f tn I am so sorry you were declared a non-responder. I will try to explain your test results to you. Don't hesitate to ask additional questions. Viral loads can be expressed in International Units per milliliter (IU/ml) or in log form. Log form represents the same number as IU/ml but expressed in "10 to the power of ...". An easier way to explain what you need to know about this is: A viral load decrease of one log equals a decrease of 90%.
Avatar n tn However, my wife only has seizures during her drinking binges, and never when in withdrawal. Almost like clockwork, I can tell when she is going to have a seizure by how much she drinks. 1.5 pints of hard liquor = seizure. As one might expect, she denies that her drinking has anything to do with her seizures. If anyone has any insight on why she is having these episodes during her drinking binges, please let me know...
Avatar f tn I have been taking xanax for 10 years now I take at least 5 2mg a day. I had a seizure once trying to come off and I have no doctor.
1742929 tn?1311164933 One is the actual viral load number and the other is just the log form. Under the old treatment the log number was used more to determined when treatment should be ended. Not sure it is as important now as most people go undetected much sooner. Hope this helps http://i-base.

Avatar n tn When he went to the kitchen for juice, he let out a scream and collapsed and began to have a seizure. The paramedics came and we got his blood sugar up with orange juice mixed with sugar and an IV, he spent 6 hours in the emergency room. My questions are #1 did he have any pain when he screamed out? He doesn't remember anything and even though I think I handled the situation, I was terrified. #2 How can we avoid this from ever happening again?
Avatar f tn What this means is you have no viral load. Both things says the same thing it is just the last one is in log form. Are you treating? If not and this was a test to see if you had Hep C or you are done treating and 12 weeks out from treatment then you are cured. Congrats to you.
Avatar f tn That may be some form of a minor seizure as well (there are multiple classes of seizures of course) as a person does not have to lose consciousness during a seizures. A person can have different types of seizures, not just the specific ones they were diagnosed with. Best to speak to a neurologist and they could do tests such as EEG's to see what is happening during those staring spells to see if its some form of seizure and then decide from there how to treat it.
Avatar f tn My 6 month old granddaughter has had 3 seizures in the last month. They start with her eyes rolling up to the right and her entire body shaking. It typically lasted 30-60 seconds. She is alert and active after the episode. So I wasn't even sure she had a seizure. So I took her to her dr. today and was told she will be referred to a pediatric neurologist but that the wait period will be 5 months!
Avatar n tn It is likely that the application form will ask if you have had certain diseases of which Hep C is certain to be one, in which case you should have a doctors letter prepared to go with the form confirming that you are 100% non-contagious.
Avatar f tn 2,800,000 for every log drop take one zero off the end. 1 log drop you would be at 280,000 A two log drop would mean 28,000 and so on. If your on incivek your needing at least close to a 4 log drop to go on.....
1570846 tn?1295829627 Hi Jenny, Your daughters seizure could have been down to the fall and please god it was a once off and will never happen again. Do keep a diary and do let her doctors know what''s going on. My son has Epilepsy and Chiari. They say it's not connected but his symptoms for both conditions started around the same time. When he's having a seizure one side of his mouth rises abnormally. and then he goes into full Tonic Clonic seizure. But as I said..
Avatar f tn There are myoclonic seizures that are progressive and Jacksonian seizures start in a limb. Sounds like seizure activity, but make a log of the symptoms, activities, food, etc. This can help, MD figure things out. Sleeping alot after a seizure is normal. I have known people who sleep alot during the day to have sleep apnea and develop seizures from lack of oxygen during the night... Important to get a work up in addition to your thyroid workup.
1653406 tn?1302383455 If as Bill says that is your result in "log "form ,,being UND. at week 4(RVR) is an excellent predictor of success. Nice to hear also sx.are minimal.... good luck.
304573 tn?1345577338 It is your viral load in log 10 form your VL is between 250-275 thousand VL log 10 250,000 5.398 275,000 5.439 http://www.hepatitis-central.com/hcv/hepatitis/loadchart.html Logarthmic format Now, recently some people express these numbers also in logarithmic form (logarithmic transformed number). log(1730000)=6.24 6.24 is the logarithmic transformed number of the viral load of our above example. A result of 3.
Avatar n tn Thank you for your question, you are relatively fine with Phenytoin and the seizure episodes in a form of lack of speech are the residue of a generalized type seizure. I don’t have a full description of your consciousness during the lack of speech episodes to decide whether this start is a partial epilepsy which can continue in a generalized or it is a generalized one from the first moment..
