my neou told me it was the stress and energey it takes on the body and gives your brain time to reset its self,did she have any warning signs before she wwnt limp?warning signs like feeling groggy-unstedy-making weired noises-feeling sick? not every one has a warning but if she does its a blessing. watch her and if she acts funny and has a seizure thats your warning sign.

My sister had her first seizure last night. She is obese, hypertension and RA. She is on multiple meds for each condition with a new one added in the last three weeks. Enbrel. She was diagnosed years ago with pseudotumor cerebri, but has not had any trouble with it as far as anyone knows. Could this new seizure be due to a recurrence of PTC? She does have an appt. with a neurologist tomorrow, but am just curious. Thank you for your quick response.

hi, im worried about my 12yr old son. i had my first seizure when i was about 12 . when i had my first seizure my nose bleed very bad and sometimes when my nose bleeds i will still have a seizure. i have been diagnosed with granmal seizures. i have icepick migraines and hes starting to have headaches. i have taken him to the doctor about the headaches ,im worried about them because im a pituitary tumor survivor. the doctor blows him off. she thinks hes acting because of my condition.

seizure in bed while asleep - never had a seizure before - didn't awaken when it occurred. Big bitten tongue.

They last about 20 minutes. Blood tests, CT scans, and mri/mra showed no signs of a stroke. Experts said these episodes could have been mini strokes. The neurologists said they could have been seizures. Every time I sneeze I'm so afraid that it will happen again. Does any one have any idea of what is causing this problem?

it sounds like that you have an aura before your seizures. you can consider it as a "warning" that a seizure is coming.

Lat year (2006) I was diagnosed with a seizure. I am a Type 1 diabetic. I'm 36 now. However I could not wake up in the morning last year. So the ambulance was called and when they checked my blood sugar, it was OK, not high or low. This was classified as a seizure and I did'nt wake up in the hopital for about 3 weeks. Is this classified as a seizure. It did affect my memory and was put on seizure medication for 6 months. In you're opinion was this a seizure?

One of the characteristic differentiating feature of an epileptic seizure is that there is an abnormal discharge of electricity from the brain during the seizure whereas there is no such electrical discharge during a pseudoseizure. An electroencephalogram (EEG) can be done to rule out epilepsy in persons experiencing pseudoseizures. Another differentiating feature is the release of a hormone known as prolactin, which is present in the blood after the true epileptic seizures .

I had a seizure last week my bp was 179/179 and my sugar 280. Im 28wks but im being induce 6wks early due to servere Heart arrhythmia With me.

These episodes only last less than 30 seconds and I do not have other classic signs of anxiety attack such as tremling, tachycardia, sweating, etc. It happens in any situation.

what are the symptoms of epilepsy and are there any warning signs? This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/894351'>EEG</a>.

Hello to everyone! I am brand new to this group and have enjoyed reading all of your posts in regards to PVCs over the past few weeks. I have finally decided to join up and give my two cents and pose a question... I have had PVCs for the past few years, diagnosed by the typical tests five years ago (EKG, ECHO, Holter). Just because I have a "diagnosis" doesn't make life easier with them, that's for sure.

my neuro told me to stop taking my dilantin, so i did for 2 mnts.i have grandmal seizures. i had a seizure last nite that lasted 5min and my husband said i was out of it for about 10min.i did start my meds last nite.does me having a seizure prove the tumor wasent the cause? i allways have warning signs but last nite it hit so fast .my family doctor wants me off dilantin. she tells me it has bad side effects.i cant take topimax it built so much pressure in my head and eyes i had to go to the er.

my 13 month old does this thing where his eyes roll in the back of his head slightly nods and his left arm extends out to his side and his right arm goes up in the waving position and his hand looks like it is waving...when he does this it kinda looks like a seizure..but if i grab him or call his name he stops! I can even get him to laugh while he is doing this! Can this behavior be a seizure??

Seizure activity and signs of neurological problems are common in dogs that are in the end stages of kidney failure due to the buildup of toxins in the body, so it's entirely possible that what you observed was the result of the kidney failure.

what you are going through is probably ocular migraines along with a seizure disorder. This can occur before or after the seizure event. These headaches are temporarily related to the seizure event and occur in unison. Migraine event is not produced from the epileptiform discharges in the brain. Migraines usually last longer and are not as frequent, have other signs that distinguish them like photo and phonophobia, vascular quality(pounding), location( occipital in your case)in pain and nausea.

Hi there. I am hoping someone can help me. My boyfriend is a type 2 diabetic. He suffers from very high sugar. However, when his sugar drops to low he has seizures. Now is the seizures due to low sugar or high sugar. Test showed high sugar. Can a high sugar also cause seizures. I don't want to treat him with the wrong treatment ie glucose if it is actually a high sugar seizure and not low like we think it is? Very confused as the treatment for high and low is so different?

And I would like to know way y'all think my cousin was running bathwater and he woke up in the floor with a knot on his head he didn't remember anything and he was very disoriented he left for work with water still running and door to house wide open when he got to work he didn't recognize someone he knew for years his wife was called and his BP was very high Me and my are convinced it is that is a seizure due to family history most seizure didn't show until my fathrs brothers a

I read on another message board something about a child getting a seizure from anesthesia. The doctor mentioned something about a pre-disposition to seizures. Then The anesthesia causing the seizure. My question is...my 6yr old has to have dental work because he has a cavity and special needs and won't let anyone in his mouth for more than a few seconds. I don't believe in restraints for him as he has anxiety and that will add to his anxiety's.

Thanks for replying so quickly. they did a blood analysis in the hospital last week but I might see a nephrologist for another opinion, as you suggested. I I have medium to low blood pressure and am pretty healthy-- except for the "partial seizure" diagnosis. \Maybe the seizure was caused by the damaged cells in my brain (I did not have neuro surgery after the stroke). I hope it is possible for seizures to stop eventually. I would hate for this to be a life-long problem.

Either there is some kind of damage or disease process in the part of the brain that caused the seizure, or she has another injury from thrashing around during the seizure. Whatever the case, you need a vet. Hopefully you can find an open clinic today. Most vet clinics have an outgoing phone message that tells there clients where to go in an emergency, so don't hang up if someone doesn't answer the phone.

can 20 years on dilantin after one seizure, then a stroke with no speech, cause terrible sideeffects?

If you are on blood pressure pills, standing after taking those will make you feel faint, sometimes dizzy. I think dizziness is mostly a result of low blood pressure, or inner ear problems. Simply standing up too fast does not cause fainting normally.

I agree, I think it would have been a lot worse by now if it was PDE. It sounds like she IS having idiopathic epileptic seizures. It makes sense when you say that she freaks out for hours beforehand and then sleeps all the next day. The "freaking out" could be the aura, she is feeling the seizure coming on, and knows what is going to happen. It happens with humans as well. There is something called the "aura", which amounts to the signs that a seizure is imminent.
