Seizure Types
Hey All, I was diagnosed with epilepsy September 2018, Controlled with Keppra & Lamogratrine, had my driving licence back for year (That’s the background story) this last month I’ve been having what I thought were panic attacks. I get this sudden fear and what feels like a rush of blood from my feet

Losing my determination
Sadly I first spent some days in a ward following what turned out to be a
seizure
. I then changed to my current private consultant.

We have only deduced certain things from the equation like epileptic
seizure
activity, cardio dysrhythmia, aneurysm, rheumatic issue, covid. The top contenders are ms, lyme, narcolepsy or stress/ anxiety pseudoseizures. I am in workup still.

Hello all- new to the forum!
I had a
seizure
in the car so was very lucky to survive that with no injuries, nothing like this has ever happened before I was discharged from hospital 18th October with no further symptoms but frustratingly there is only a working diagnosis of HSV encephalitis as the initial lumbar puncture/PCR test

Epilepsy - Getting it under Control?
Lots of focal (front lobe) seizures while in hospital but
seizure
-free at discharge a month later. However seizures came back 2 months later. For over a year we have dealt with initially very frequent seizures. It’s now down to 1-2 every ca. 2 weeks.

I have J M E since the age of 14 I am 65, and have had over 400 + seizures, since 2013 I have seen "epilepsy specialists" four times!
Since my last face to face consultation in April 2018 I have had one
seizure
in December 2019, now on borrowed time. Not very impressed with Epilepsy care in this part of UK?

CD doesn't define me anymore. I hope this is encouraging.
CD appeared as episodes of
seizure
-like convulsions and dissociation. It was absolutely terrifying. Full disclosure is that CD started immediately at the height of orgasm in the beginning.

Painkillers
(unnecessary as I had had an Endoscopy two days before when they failed to band some varices) then a completely unexplained
seizure
whilst on the ward recovering from bleeding and banding.

Levetiracetam and breastfeeding
On 9 July 2021, I had a
seizure
where I lost consciousness and bit my tongue. This was my first experience of having a
seizure
. My blood pressure was also very high and has been fluctuating since.

2nd post (Advice welcome 2 years no diagnosis..) Making the most of neurology appointment, what to tell the doctor?
And not aware if it is even possible to get delayed impact from that…any insight would be useful. 2 years ago (as in my previous post) symptoms started following a
seizure
. There was no trigger found for the ‘
seizure
’ (which affected my right side).

Symptoms
I almost have
seizure
like activity in my brain though I don’t have convulsions or anything. I had a Brain MRI 11 months ago. I had full blood work, head cat scan , urine test , endoscopy 2 months ago and it was fine. I’m 22 but can’t help but feel like there’s something more wrong with me!

Newly diagnosed bechets
And I do wonder if the random
seizure

Returning to work
I had to leave my job as I couldn't function at work what with hardly sleeping and still having
seizure
which were scrambling my brain for a few days after I had one. For the past four years because of my health, I have not worked.

Is this a simple partial aware seizure?
I don't know what just happened to me. It was nothing like most anxiety I've experienced. I was sat on my sofa, enjoying a film. Out of nowhere, I had this huge head rush feeling and a massive burst of anxiety. It lasted about a second. My neck tingled, my head felt like it lost its balance. Normally

Symptom of nodule?
So as you can imagine the mind is working overtime in the worry stakes - I want to ask has anyone had a symptom of sudden, aprupt head shake (feels like a tiny
seizure
) with dizziness - afterwards I feel very heavy head but often this shake would shift the entire body - so if I was holding a cup of tea
