Other than auras, all of my seizures are impaired awareness where I never even know when I have a seizure.
I’ve had this test done twice. Both times I went back in and had an appointment with the neuropsychologist to go over the results. Then I got a paper copy.

I have temporal lobe seizures which are also called focal impaired awareness seizures
I live in Elderly , have my own apartment. Verna my Caretaker comes in on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. She makes breakfast, prepares meals for dinner, as well as trying to keep the place clean and organized. Funding is an issue, because some places in and near Stamford cost $3,000 a month. My Rent here is not much. Living here with her help is working well now. I do not qualify for Medicaid to pay those costs, and do not know if they would in the future.
I’ve never received results of anything. Just a verbal, “You have a seizure disorder “. Then later was told (verbal) temporal lobe/ focal seizures. Then was told absent.seizures. They can’t make up their minds.
