Hi Tress, you may want to look into getting treatment some where else. That kind of response tells me that the nurse is not properly trained and does not know what they are doing. Nurses are usually trained to support and treat a patient, not tell a patient how they are feeling.

You need to get a hold of the HR or Human Resources at that hospital . The get a hold of the Medical Board through the state

If Anyone EVER Has A Problem With A Doctor OR A Nurse OR ANY Medical Professional REPORT Them....I Had A Doctor, A Urologist Act In A VERY Unprofessional Manner While Examining Me And I DID'NT Report It And I WISH I Had Because I Found Out After The Fact That MANY Other Patients Other Than Myself Had The SAME Complaint. So Next Time Someone Acts Like That You Ask To Speak To Their Supervisor If They Are The Supervisor You Ask Who Their Boss Is Or Complain To The Hospital Administration

Tress, sometimes location of the hospital close by isn't always the best. If you are going to seek treatment, you have to make sure the doctor is qualified to know your condition. Maybe you should look into seeing a Neurologist. They usually have a good knowledge of seizures.
