I remember having my first
seizure
at 17 years old and it was brushed off because I have an anxiety disorder and treatment resistant depression. Recently I was intubated and sent to an out of state hospital because I was having constant seizures in a cluster and I couldn’t stop.

currently going through diagnosis
Hi all, Just looking for some advice, my daughter is currently under investigation for epilepsy, we have had an EEG which showed
seizure
activity and currently awaiting an MRI scan, just wanting some advice with regards to what else to expect, are they the two main diagnostic tools?

Tumour is stable but having seizures
His anti-
seizure
medication was upped and he’s not been too bad. However, over the last week his speech has gone weird again and his right arm has lost some strength. We have called the nurse who has spoken to the consultant and she believes it’s the same as before.

My GP has only increased the dosage now due to me having a faint/
seizure
which led to brain scan showing some cerebral sub cortical T2 hyperintensities white matter that may be small vessel disease and I don’t have any clear risk factors for this.

Working on overcoming FND
Also finding the right
seizure
medication has helped greatly. I am here to say, there is hope. Don't give up, keep trying. The saying is true, if at first you don't succeed, try, try again. I am still not 100 % back to where I was before this happened, I would say maybe 90 to 95% now.

ME AGAIN! SEISURE!
my husband just had his third
seizure
in two months ! CAT scan and bloodwork were all clear. He has orthostatic hypotension but this morning it was 117/75. Lasted a few seconds. He doesn’t remember it ! Neurologist thinks it’s due to low BP. Anyone else?? Thx!

My name is Tabitha and this is my story
I've been diagnosed with stage 3 B kidney disease and have recently been diagnosed with high blood pressure and a
seizure
disorder. From my MRI, it shows I've had a stroke in the past, although I have no idea when. I have 4 wonderful and supportive children and nine grandchildren.

Lacosamide
Im also finding that since keppra increase to 750mg twice a day after a
seizure
on 1st september lasting around 10 minutes, this has had an effect regarding being more agitated and impatient.

My husband started having seizures 18 months ago, since then his mild tinnitus gets worse after each
seizure
. He is really struggling at the moment, and any help would be appreciated.

another iron infusion? and low ALT level
and anti-
seizure
drugs (which I believe neurontin is), plus it may be a sign of B6 vitamin deficiency, which also causes neuropathy. I will try to ask our neurologist about it, of course, but maybe somebody can add an input. Thanks again to every one here - you really help a lot!

Darolutamide and Desunomab Questions
The urologist plans to add an ARI (reception inhibitor)) and I prefer Nubeqa (darolutamide) which has less risk of
seizure
because it does not cross the blood brain barrier.

I have a broken skull, from a double seizure, in Jan. 2018, I suffer from severe equilibrium, dizziness, when getting up, sitting down!
Surely there must be someone else who has broken their skull, and suffers similar symptoms? How do you cope with it? I have epilepsy but maybe someone has broken their skull in an accident, but again suffers bad equilibrium/balance issues?
