I am a Type II diabetic (diagnosed 10 years ago) on metformin (1,000 mg. daily) and prandin (2 mg with meals). I have been diagnosed with a heart problem and have been exercising regularly as part of cardiac rehab. I have been experiencing frequent sugar lows, resulting in blurred vision and dizzyness. Last week, I awoke in the hospital after having diabetic seizures. I remember feeling weak and taking some glucose tablets. Apparently these weren't enough to ward off the seizure.
s putting people back on it temporarily to ween them off properly, and then try another method like Tegretol and Klonopin to assist with side effects or having another Seizure, and or also give them meds to prevent seizure period. Similar to what people with epilepsy take who have multiple seizures. I can't and do not understand why a Dr. would put anyone on Xanax for life. Your friend may need a 2nd opinion for her own health and safety. Good luck to you both.

He was placed on Keppra 500mg orally twice a day for seizure precautions due to the fall. He has been on the medication for approximately three weeks. He is tired, blah, and feels short of breath. I know it will take time to heal but do you know how long he should have to be on the medication and/or how long he will feel this way? I'm not sure how much activity to encourage. If you have any information or advice to ask the neurologist, I would greatly appreciate it!!
It would depend on the cause of the seizures. Also some medications can lower the seizure threshold including many antipsychotics but only a doctor or psychiatrist would understand this in full. It would be worthwhile to discuss these concerns with them and what the appropriate means of follow up would be.

If it is confirmed that your events are due to seizures, you would need to be started on seizure medications (anti-epileptic drugs). It is important to assume seizure precautions as well, such as not driving or being in situations in which you could injure yourself or others if you had a seizure, such as standing on a height or swimming unsupervised.
Thank you for using the forum, I hope you find this information useful, good luck.
my 5 year old boy is taking topomax 5 mg since last 2 and a half years as a treatment for seizure ,his body temperature is most of the time found to be above normal....
I have had a history of seizures (from the small ones where they last for just seconds, to the bigger ones where I am passed out for minutes at a time) but I have lately been feeling as if every night I am going to have a seizure for about two months time now. I take the proper dosage of my medication, I do not drink or smoke (ever) but I have for some time now been under a heavy amount of stress. I should point out that my sleep schedule is not on track though.
Is it ok to lift heavy weights and do strenuous activities? Btw i tried quitting cold turkey but i had seizure at work i was stocker in the frozen section at a grocery store maybe thats why i had a seizure idk.
Why are you posting and not your father? Can you explain "precautions"? Do you mean prevent his diabetes from progressing?
If yes we need to know what he is doing to control and manage his diabetes - foods he eats, exercise program, blood sugar levels and when he tests?
"the good diet plan for them...."
Changing lifestyle habits can go a long way in controlling type 2 diabetes. India leads the world in diabetes. This is mainly due to poor diet/nutrition.
The change in air pressure after an injury like you have can lead to a seizure, no thanks, right? Has it only been two weeks? I do think those with head injuries need to take special precautions but not indefinitely. Does he totally evade the question as to when you'll be okay for air travel? And again, I'd look into other means of transportation.
If they arent too many side affects, then stay on it. I have JME, and I take Keppra. I've been on Keppra for almost 5 years now. Started at 23, and I'm 28 now. I had one grand mal seizure and that was the worst month of my life. Not knowing your parents, you can move, and the headaches... if he's seizure free, keep the meds! Nothing is worse than having a seizure. And you cant drive after that. I say stay on it. Keppra has done very well for me...

It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. Please consult your epilepsy specialist regarding this. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
Under certain circumstances this can precipitate an actual epileptic seizure. Or a medical condition somewhat short of a complete seizure.

How exactly a seizure is induce is not clear. This medical problem has been well-documented and researched.
