A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I had a 9 minute seizure lastnight, very aggressive. Typically I have Frontal lobe and temporal lobe seizures. I had stiffening of the body, jerking, shaking and wretching as if to vomit, did nothing but bile, rapid eye movement etc lastnight 9 minutes at, 9 minutes I was able to collect myself enough to take Ativan. 2mg PO.

My med regime is Onfi 10mg BID and Toprimate 400mg XR at bed time

I don't know anything about what type of epilepsy I have. I was only told that I'm epileptic. I've always had a learning disability and I (still to this day) cannot comprehend anything and having long term memory loss just makes it worse. Everyone that knows me knows more about me and my life more than I do. I'm 25 now and I can only remember anything negative. I had an eating disorder and was only 69lbs, having more than 3 gran-mal seizers a day and nonstop anxiety attacks all the time. While having to take Care of my mom A lot cause of many suicide attempts. She lost full use of her right hand when she woke up under her bed causing a pinched nerve. And I still get treated like crap from my family when I've done no wrong at all, my twin treats me the worse and I can't handle asl this mental abuse anymore. I have PTSD from a lot of things but the worst one was when I found my big brothers lifeless body on the floor in his bedroom. Its been five years since his death and I cannot get that image off my mind. It caused me to get random numbing in my legs randomly I couldn't walk and hard time breathing. I am also looking for the same advice you want. Feeling numb randomly even through seizures, is making it very difficult to cope with everything that's happened and getting myself together and better. I get no help from family.

I lost the use of my left arm for over 6 months after a bad seizure. My toes and feet are always numb. They tested me for neuropathy it was negative. I just kinda deal with it.
