Avatar m tn If GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter, how does diazepam can cause anti-depress? I heard that it can treat seizure? Seizure is a disease that is over-stimulation, repetitive, uncontrolled neuronal firing in CNS. May I know how does it treat seizure? Thanks.
Avatar f tn Once i did this next thing i knew i woke up sitting on my shower floor with my hair tangled on my shower knob, holding my head up. The only reason for me to believe it was a seizure is because i woke up to a loud banging noise, which happened to be my head hitting the wall continuously, but i didnt feel it and couldnt control it. once i stood up i was still very dizzy, confused and scared because i ended up completely turned around and on the ground of my shower.
Avatar f tn I would definitely have an EEG done to see about seizure activity. I have had a seizure disorder for the last 26 years. Most of the time mine were absence seizures. Unless people knew what they were looking for, they had no clue that I was having a seizure.
Avatar f tn Partner had a stroke april 21 but only this last 6mths she has had 1/2 episodes where she has gone to laugh and had one i would describe as a seizure - she stares and goes red as though struggling to breath then 10ish secs later she is absolutely fine- anyone else had similar
Avatar f tn Ever since my Neurologist started taking me off my anti seizure meds, I've started getting these brain spasms, I guess you could call them that anyways. They only happen on days I'm not on my meds. For example, last week when I tried not to take my meds for the first time, I had a really bad brain spasm where my entire brain kinda froze, and my body jolted and I dropped everything I was holding. I had many more of those and had to go home from school.
328381 tn?1269364102 We recommend, as was the case in your pet, to run bloodwork, to identify any underlying conditions. There are numerous causes of seizure activity including, but not limited to, heart abnormalities, liver diseases, toxins, bacterial or viral infections, internal parasitism, congenital defects, hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), storage diseases, fungal infections, kidney disease, trauma, neoplasia (cancer), etc.
Avatar f tn Seizures aren’t typical symptoms of an allergic reaction. There may be something else causing the seizures, flashing lights can trigger seizures in some people. See your doctor for a proper evaluation, likely an EEG, and possibly further tests to diagnose the issue.
Avatar n tn Many people experience a once off seizure (I think it's something like 1% of the population) Were you doing anything at the time that could have triggered it? The only thing you can do at the moment is wait for the EEG results and that will determine where you will go from here.
Avatar m tn What are some causes for cronic Headaches? , I have them like everyday since i can remember. there normally in back or around the eyes?
1830047 tn?1321667793 I hope that someone with better info will chime in. But I have read that spinal lesions can sometimes cause different symptoms on opposite sides. Wish I had more info, well, even just explain the info I have better....cog fog. after the busy week.
Avatar f tn This is when I realised it was serious so I woke Becky and we called 111. They advised me to go to A&E straight away. After arriving in A&E, my nausea went off the charts and I had a temporary stabbing pain in the lower right part of my abdomen. I was also feeling extremely weak. The triage nurse hooked me up to an ECG, checked my blood pressure, took some blood (which almost made me pass out!) and topped me up with a small saline solution.

Avatar n tn My wife is experiencing the following symptoms: uncontrolled body movements (seizing, ticking, contortion of face, arms, and torso), difficult speech (or unable to talk), migraine-like headaches following, and lack of balance. She has had an MRI, eeg monitoring, cat scans, and sees a neurologist for controlled epilepsy. These episodes came out of the blue 2 weeks ago and eased for a day or two, then came back full force. Any ideas?
Avatar n tn what is causing my hair lose? is it my seizure medications or my sickel cell anemia medications. thank you.
Avatar f tn You may want to ask your doctor to schedule an EEG to check for seizure activity. A type of seizure called Partial Complex Seizure can explain this. Some people have them and not even know it. A lot of times they are caused by fever or a head injury. Sometimes there is no explanation as to why these happen. I have had Epilepsy for 37 yrs, I have the convulsion type seizures but I am also firmiliar with the Partial Complex Seizures as well. Hope ya get an answer soon, and feel better. Take care.
Avatar m tn I don't think people who have a seizure remember the seizure, but he definitely had something. Maybe it's a thyroid problem. He needs to be seen, but an ER is the slowest, most expensive and least efficient way to do it.
Avatar n tn i am 22 and have an eight week old baby i had a seizure 3 days ago this was my first what could it be
Avatar f tn Stress causes seizures and different things I even get stressed out.
Avatar m tn I have had 2 brain lesions for over three years. They have not grown the past two, but this years MRI showed growth. I have had a Lumbar Puncture and the only thing we are waiting on are the O-bands and the Total Protein. At this point, everything else it normal. I am frustrated as I had a Nerve Conduction study in 2015 from my knees down that showed I had no feeling from my knee to my foot on both outside legs.
Avatar n tn Certain types of epilepsies and seizures too can cause similar symptoms. However, even low blood sugars and other causes can precipitate a seizure. If you have an accompanying headache then you must also look at benign intracranial hypertension. Heart problems too should be ruled out in your case. If all other tests are normal, maybe an ECHO should be done to rule out mitral valve prolapse. Patent foramen ovale too could be the cause (commonly known as hole in the heart).
