I'm just wondering has anyone had a seizure during a doctor's appointment?
I'm asking this question as I've heard a youtube neurologist say it's very rare for a seizure to happen at a doctor's office.
But aren't seizures unpredictable and can happen anywhere so I'm confused about this statement.
YES! For the first 10 years, from 1980 to 1990, 1/2 the time that i'd go to my GP 's Office, I'd have a Seizure. I always found that Very Weird.....
That is not the way a Dr. should respond. Especially a psychiatrist, that is the kind of Dr. people go to talk to when they are depressed. A neurologist is the kind of Dr. people go to help people with epilepsy to try a stop their seizures by giving them medication and tests. When You experience what You believe is a seizure go to someone and let them watch You until that feeling/seizure is gone. Another person may notice something that You don’t know is happening if You think/believe A seizure is happening. The sooner epilepsy is detected the more time You have to end it.
My daughter had seizures at the doctors office several times, she was all worried about having her blood drawn, so anxiety can definitely bring it on.
Yes, one time he asked me to come in w/ flurries. They gave me a shot which did the trick of stopping them!
Another time during my son’s appt. Had a seizure! I was hospitalized for that one. The ER loaded me with medication I could not walk so they admitted me.
No I've never had a seizure at a Dr appt. I always thought it was ridiculous that the Dr expected it to happen at that very moment. Mine are vere random and completely no idea it's happening till I wake up after in pain.
