I think it might be because of the seizure activity in your head. I have it at times also.

I will tell you that the types of neuropsychological rehabilitation I received after the TBI definitely help me when I am trying to organize my thinking and my schedule. But even that lags now after so many years of seizures. I am lucky if I can remember the cognitive tools, let alone use them.
So yes, I think there are a lot of similarities between the effects of Epilepsy, ADHD, and cognitive loss from TBI, on memory and cognitive function. But I don’t think the terms are interchangeable.

I get vertigo sometimes too. I just thought that could be one of the side effects from the meds.

Nicole I read some time later that they were testing that very thing in European countries. You could be correct as well. There may not be only one reason/cause.

AndreaHoekstra, the balance, dizziness, and even distraction and irritability are all related to both the epilepsy and the meds. It’s really a Catch-22 with this disease. I have terrible balance issues, in addition to the distraction, so you’re not alone…
