In my family seizures from video games is in our genes.. Im very concerened Should I see a doctor??? Btw this has been happening for a few years now...
1108194 tn?1378424522 Yes, he has been playing the games. Its almost like he is playing even though he isn't. I tried to hold his hand to see how long he could keep it still and I could see/feel the pinky and ring finger moving.
903476 tn?1242237037 Very helpful thank you, I did go see a doctor and shes 99% sure it's tendonitis and this is just the first time it has ever become inflamed. She has has sent me for X-rays I will be getting tomorrow and she wants me to see a physiotherapist. She wont tell me 100% till she runs more tests but between the ice and heat sand of course the Tylenol the pain is gone but now I'm feeling pain in my left thumb.
Avatar f tn So I came down stairs and he was playing on my laptop playing stupid freaking video games. So I asked him if he called and he said yeah they said come anytime today. So I checked his phone... He didn't call at all he hasn't gotten or made a call at all since yesterday! He's always too busy with the damn video games to do what I ask him to do. He won't even lay with me at night because he's up until like 6 playing the stupid computer game!!!

Avatar f tn I have been so emotional lately! I cry when my husband plays video games lol. I can't help it or control my emotions whatsoever.
Avatar f tn If I push on it with my thumb it just feels like a more knobby knuckle (on only the right side) however even that little pressure tingles my finger tip. I noticed it after I had been playing an ungodly amount of video games.. the next day i realized, that is where I put most my pressure because when i attempted to play I continuously felt the tingles while holding the controller in my natural position. Perhaps that's the cause, or maybe coincidence?
Avatar f tn complex partials all of my life but at an older age I statred having grand mals as well. In regards to video games and computers it all depends on what triggers the seizures. I am unable to stay exposed to video games and computer screens for long time periods due to the bright, counter-connecting waves which for unexplained reasons trigger my seizures. Once again, that's something to discuss with your doctor. I would suggest observing your seizure activity while on the computer.
Avatar n tn When I watch TV for longer than a couple hours (mostly when I play video games), my right eye tends to sort of sting and get a bit watery. I've noticed if I keep watching TV or playing on the computer for extended periods of time, a small section of my eye turns red, almost like pink eye when I look in the mirror. Today I closed one eye to see if there was a difference, and my right eye was a bit blurrier than my left.. what's wrong? P.S. I'm not on any medications.
Avatar m tn Recently I spent a week playing a lot video games on a giant 49 inch HDTV. I never really played video games on the HDTV beforehand. A couple days ago I played almost the whole day, and my eyes got really really tired and really red. After that day, whenever I'm using a computer or looking at a screen, within 10 minutes of looking, my left eyeball gets hit with a lot of pain. Especially behind the eyeball. So much, that I have to turn away from the computer and get an icepack.
Avatar m tn t have anything to do with your masturbation in my opinion. Are you left-handed? If you play video games, this may be due to excessive playing, depending upon the time involved during various play sessions. Any repetitive muscle movements can stress the affected muscles and ligaments.
203342 tn?1328737207 yea every kid loves video games but the games have to be fun. if you can get those new technologies to work with games like halo or world of warcraft i can see it being a great help to many people, but other wise i don't see it working on kids above the age of 12.
Avatar n tn When I was a really little kid, I would sit and play video-games all day! Now I only play video-games like 3 times a week, and only for a hour or so. Is there an effect that video-games can have you, to thwart my progress as an athlete?
Avatar f tn Here is a game for those who enjoy any kind of games. Board Games, Video Games, T.V. Games, Computer Games, etc. Rules: The rules are very similar to the Song Titles: Alphabet Game, but instead of song titles you would list a game. Beginning at A, then when we reach Z the game would begin again at A. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Let's try to see how many we can list without repeating any.
Avatar f tn I am a 17 year old guy. I really enjoy doing things with family, but at the same time I really value my alone time. One of the things I do when I'm alone is play video games, but I often let my playing negatively effect my time management. When I play video games I kind of shut out the rest of the world. My mom and I have a close relationship, and have for forever. Right now she and my step father are having marital problems that are to the point that he isn't living with us.
7566904 tn?1394763978 Well my bf is kinda weird... all he cares about is games...games...games! He promised we were gonna move out before the baby got here and he just recently told me we cant because we dont have the money. I asked him last night if we could get a 4d ultrasound because ive been wanting one pretty badly amd he asked if it was mandatory. I said no but we wont see our baby until hes born. And he said well Heather, money is not our friend right now.
Avatar f tn A five year old addicted to video games is not unusual. If they are around video games the majority of the time, that is what they will do. If you dont like him playing, take it away...plain and simple. He might not know how to play at first. And, it sounds like he is the only child in the house. So, he doesnt have that other interaction to help him learn how to play...except for you. So, my suggestion is to get him a new toy...and put him in his room by himself to learn how to play.
Avatar n tn Well I myself take depakote as well for seizures as a kid, I know that asprin cannot be taken with depakote, not sure if it causes the seizures tho or if it just has an interaction!! And as far as video games it says all over the games and systems that epileptics should use caution because it can cause seizures. Especially with the prolonged time that you spent playing!!! Does he have regular seizures in general? Has he been an epileptic long??
Avatar f tn That's cool. May I ask how old your kids are? Do they enjoy video games? I'm 20 years old, and I love Nintendo Video Games. Super Mario and the Legend of Zelda ones are the best, in my opinion.
13335980 tn?1433814733 I just found out Im pregnant last weekend, and this week, I've realized every time I try to play video games I get Morning sickness and throw up. I've only had Morning sickness two days, and Both times happened after playing video games. Is this normal or did anyone else experience this?

2188958 tn?1346444891 I play video games with my man.. when I want attention I just say "attention me!" And he knows I've had enough..
Avatar f tn video games are similar to internet chat. They're both addictive. I've been reading you post and the thing that kept cropping up in my mind was this. Why are you sitting around home waiting on him to do something you want. Grab a girlfriend and go to the movies, create a social circle that improves your life. Amazingly enough, it captures their attention if you're living and they're not.
784382 tn?1376931040 (we have a movie time at night before bed to relax) but when they get older there WILL be a time limit on video and computer games. there will be no 5 or 6 hours of playing games or browsing the internet.
Avatar m tn His video games!!
Avatar n tn In addition to my hand jerking sometimes some of my muscles also have been twitching. I do play a lot of video games so i was wondering if that could be what was causing these twitches. Also how would I be able to stop the twitching.
