I get one partial seizure almost every day, in fact this is what initially clued me in that something was wrong with me. Everyone says they last like 2 to 10 minutes but I am tired, disoriented, confused and over all a zombie for up to four hours after I have one. Are there any tricks to either keep it from getting to that point or to recover quickly once it's gotten there? The only solution I have is that if I am on a low-carb diet, these episodes last 1-2 hours instead of 2-4 hours. Thank you.

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member try to limit your salt intake that's a big factor for seizures I'm not sure what's a trigger for you but definetly limit your salt intake some salt but don't over do it because we have to keep hydrated also depending on your medication stay always from certain herbs as well as grapefruits.

If I have a cluster of seizures I take my recovery meds, lorazepam
