Avatar m tn * The symptoms and early warning signs to prevent a diabetic seizure? * Does your BF have a home glucose test meter? Know the proper testing times? Know the normal test values? * When feeling the onset of a seizure has he/you tested his blood sugar levels? * Does he understand and follow a strict diabetes control and management - diet, weight, exercise? These are items an Endo can go over with him and you to help get his diabetes under better control.

Avatar n tn Since you are new to this, the best advise I can give you is to learn the warning signs of when his glucose level is getting low. That way, you will be able to recognize it in time to get him food/drink. It takes a lot of practice and it's definitely a scary thing because it's horrible to watch someone having a seizure. Anyway, my opinion is that your husband didn't get to the point of actually having a seizure but rather the stages leading up to it. I hope this helps!
Avatar n tn I had a traumatic head injury in 2001. I had a seizure that brought me back to life and I was paralyzed for a short time. Since then, I have gotten these cold shivers that start at the base of my neck. The shivers have an icy hot sensation and my whole body shakes, primarily on the right side where I was paralyzed. Could these shivers be a warning sign of MS? My grandmother had MS as well.
327385 tn?1378360731 it starts throughout the brain more or less at once). If you have a warning before your seizure, and if your face droops before your seizure, these indicate that your seizure may be starting in a specific area of the brain (likely involving the face area) then spreading to become generalized, leading to a grand mal. Whether or not a seizure is partial (another term is focal seizure) from the onset helps determine which medications should be used.
Avatar f tn 1) Warning signs of depression. A) When we are in the midst of our episode, it's sometimes hard to see the slipping into depression. B) Others might need to see the warning signs to help us. 2) It explains the affects of our illness in good detail for our loved ones (as well as those trying to answer the questions?)

Avatar n tn Hi, Diagnosis of temporal lobe seizure is primarily on the basis of the symptoms presented and the results of tests. Diagnosis may include a complete physical examination, including a detailed neuromuscular examination, an EEG (electroencephalograph) or a head CT scan or a cranial MRI may show the location and extent of the lesion. EEG shows characteristic changes confirming partial (focal) seizures, and may show the focus (location of the cause). What were the results of your tests?
Avatar n tn And also to prevent any more severe or even minor hypoglycemic episodes for about 2 weeks now so that his body chemicals can return to normal. If he does this, his warning symptoms for hypo spells will remain good, but if he allows another low or several lows to happen before his body returns to normal (studies indicate that it takes about 2 weeks for the liver's emergency sugars that are released during a hypo spell to be removed from the body), he may lose his warning symptoms.

Avatar f tn The reason for my postis not to sscare but to educate others about the seriousness of the disease and highlight the warning signs. For a disease so common (according to my research) I think I was failed by my gynae. Don't get me wrong, I don't blame her but I am now telling u what she shud have told me; which is: SWELLING IS EXPECTED IN PREGNANCY. HOWEVER, IF U SWELL IN THE HANDS AND FACE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE GET UR URINE TESTED FOR PROTEIN TRACES AND UR BLOOD PRESSURE CHECKED.
Avatar n tn i do sleep for hours after. i have 3 kids and i feel useless sometimes to. i have warning signs before i have a seizure. i take 400mg dilantin a day.if i get really stressed sometimes can bring one on. i had a grandmal while driving going to moms for thanksgiving, i was so stressed out. so far my seizures are controlled. do you have any warning before you have a seizure? i take my meds every nite and im doing very good now.
Avatar n tn Also some people have warning signs before they have a seizure, letting them know that something is up. So that maybe what your son's tummy aches are, his warning. My dad rolls his eyes to the top of the lid, not all the way back but as far up as they can get without being rolled back. Good luck, that is horrible for a two year old to go through. I am the mother of a 4 year old, and I have a lot of sympathy for you and him. Hopefully they aren't seizures and he will be fine.
Avatar n tn This morning I awoke with nauesa, which went away after an hour or so and it was replaced with a headache and blurred vision. These were the same symptoms that I had in the hospital shortly after the seizure. All symptoms are gone, other than the blurry vision, which seems worse in my left eye. Should I be concerned about these symptoms? Is it possible that I had another seizure in my sleep and awoke with the normal symptoms?
Avatar f tn A few minutes after that she had a grand mal seizure. (First seizure ever). Rushed to the hospital by ambulance. She had 1 seizure in ambulance, 2 more in the ER. Cat Scan showed nothing. She was put on seizure medication, but seizures continued. She was also given bacterial and fungal medication, in case of encyphillitis, etc., Ran every possible test imaginable, all came back negative. Spinal Fluid showed elevated white blood cells. Doctors could not figure out what was causing her seizures.
