i have many drs. my local dr, my neoro dr at university of chicago hospital, and the epilo dr in the cleveland clinic.
dont be afraid of new drs, i have been thru many drs before this.

I totally understand. Some of my seizures would start with ringing in my ears and crows-crowing in a tree. If your Neuro is just smiling at you, I'd find another one.

Yes indeed! This old neorologist just looks at me as if I am a stupid woman. He just shrugged and said "Well we don't know if this is related to your epilepsy. Go to your GP. If he think I should look at it, I will. So I went to my GP - who is following up with everything and getting me to Toronto to an Epileptologist. I will not see that Neorologist again.

You really must manage your own risk! Trusting the medical profession without your own research has been a near death trap for me. And I lecture against this! Just in the lab area. There is something ironic here. It sure redoubles my commitment to speak out.

It sounds like the neurologist has never had seizures!! People have so many different auras or seizure activity. The dr might need to come on this site and find ou what people go through. People don't make things up. I think it will open Drs eyes and minds

It's been going on for > 2 months! I had the seizure 2 months ago and now this is getting worse. But I am also changing from Dilantin to Keppra and are on full dose of both right now. But it makes me feel eneasy, like I should "get ready."

Thanks so much for replying.
