[FITHETEA]

I HAVE HAD A NON EPELECTIC SEZUIRE TODAY AND COLLAPSED N MY FRONT GARDEN I WAS ONLY OUT FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES, BUT SHOULD I GO TO A AND E,

Hi, really sorry you’ve experienced this. I know they can be really scary! In my experience there’s not a lot A&E can do and I’ve only gone when the seizures have been continuous (over an hour) and I’ve hit my head in the process. Also, A&E is unfortunately not always that sympathetic towards ‘pseudo seizures’ so the process can sometimes be more anxiety provoking than helpful. I know this reply is late but do you have someone who can be with you for the next few hours? Part of what makes the seizures so scary for me is the fear it will happen again and I will hurt myself.

HELLO HONEY'

SO PLEASED THAT I HAVE FOUND SOMEONE WHO WRITES IN CAPS TOO, I FIND IT EASIER WITH MY FND BUT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE OFFENDED UNTIL THEY UNDERSTAND THE REASON WHY,

I AM SO SO TO HEAR THAT YOU COLLAPSED IN YOUR GARDEN, BUT IT SOUNDS A LOT LIKE ME!!

WHEN I WAS FIRST DIAGNOSED I WAS FALLING AND COLLAPSING EVERYWHERE!!

IF YOU GET TAKEN TO A&E ETC THEY DONT UNDERSTAND AND SEND YOU HOME.

SO THE BEST BET IS FOR YOU TO GET TO YOUR GP QUICK, AND ENLIGHTEN THEM ON FUNCTION NEUROLOGICAL DISSORDER IF YOU NEED TO AND ASK FOR THEIR HELP AND SUITABLE MEDICATION, IT IS A LONG ROAD BUT YOU WILL GET THERE IN THE END, IN THE MEANTIME I UNDERSTAN IT IS LIKE GOING TO HELL AND BACK!

ANYWAY, I HOPE THAT YOU ARE OK AFTER YOUR FALL AND WISH YOU LUCK IN GETTING ALL THE HELP THAT YOU NEED

BEST WISHES TO YOU AND YOURS XX

Not unless you not feeling well or you have injured yourself because I have non epileptic seizures and each one I had they can't help you unless injury or feeling unwell since you had your non epileptic seizures.
