seizure
Do you get a Kaleidescope vision disturbance? I had a brain Angiogram over a week ago, and 3 days after it I had a vision disturbance like this. I spoke someone in Neuro who suggested it may be seizure related. I am afraid to tell my GP doctor as I've been told if an EEG comes back positive, they'll take my driving license from me. I have an appointment next week with an Eye consultant. I was in an RTA with severe head injuries 4 months ago.
Hoping, you must come from a real small town if u think cedar rapids is big.
My husband is a 35 yr old healthy man. About two years ago he had one seizure in his sleep. Bit his tongue woke up with horrible head ach and vomiting. Very disoriented and confused. Now the seizures are getting closer together in episodes. They are always in his sleep. Usually before he falls asleep hot and cold sweats occur and he says he thinks he may have the same reoccurring dream? All EEG EKG And MRI's come back as normal. How exactly to you rule out epilepsy?
Yeah that's what I'm scared of, I don't want to hurt anyone, being in a car can hurt a lot of people and it kill. I do have to wait 6 months, I get my lisence back in a month I have yet to have a seizure but I'm terrified that when I stay driving I'll start to have them again. But it's nice to hear it does lessen with time, but for me I've only been having them for a year. Thanks for your response too, I'm thinking of going for hypnotherapy to try and help.
My brother-in-law has lost his license so many times from having a seizure I've lost count. He always gets is back in the end, but he has a lot of hoops that he has to jump through to get them back. I'm sorry you are going through this and I hope it's going be resolved soon. Be sure to come back and update us when you have more information.

My NS wants to wait to do surgery until he rules out other possible problems. In the mean time I have been seeing a Neurologist. She is great, and seems to be doing everything she can for me. She has prescribed Lyrica for me for some of the nerve pain. Has anyone else tried this? Has it worked for you? I have been losing my peripheral vision on and off, and it is almost impossible for me to move my head without excruciating pain.
My mom called me out of school and as I was driving home, I had horrible ringing in my ears that lasted a few seconds, then right after that went away my left arm went numb and the left side of my jaw went numb and my words were a little slurred. I'm not quite sure what happened, but after that I've been waking up through the night with headaches all around the same time... What could this be, I need help.
I had a benign brain tumor removed from my left frontal lobe one year ago. Since I have had that I suffer from Grand Mal Seizures due to scar tissue. Is this something that is common? Also after my seizures I am confused as to the year and even not remembering people in my family.On one occasion this has lasted 2 hours. I am not concerned about it but my family is very concerned about it. Any help or advice I can get would be of great help.
The seizure happened at my son's school. The school nurse has explained to me what happened and what kind of seizure it was. The problem with describing the symptoms before and after are that I don't remember. I don't even remember being on the side of the room that it happened on. And when I came to all I remember it throwing up in the trash can and feeling confused.

I am a pet sitter. Today I was on my way to visit a client. As I was driving I started to have a panic attack. Panic attacks are not new for me, I've experienced them for many years. The problem is that I was driving my car and don't remember anything from the onset of the attack to the point that was sitting in my living room on the couch.
For business reasons I keep a journal with my departure and arrival times. I left my home at 4:39 pm and arrived back at home at 5:07pm.
t making an sense at all. Worried, she started driving him to a local urgent care clinic. Along the way he began falling in and out of sleep. When arriving at the clinic, upon getting it of the car he proceeded to vomit. While attempting to get him inside and onto a gurney, he then went into a full Grand Mal seizure...something he hasn't had In over 8 years.
