I think the type of movies like being a stressful or comedy might have something different each time too!
How come every time I start a new job within the first 1 to 3 days I start having multiple focal seizures and it affects my work but when I am home not working it will be fine my focal seizures will be gone
The stress ï now have too much in my mind. Take it one day at a time
I was diagnosed several years ago with grand mal seizures, except that an EEG wouldn't detect them while I was having them. Was diagnosed with hereditary seizures.Was wondering has anyone else heard of the term or something similar??

My least favorite part of an EEG was having the electrodes implanted directly into my scalp. Then I was told to relax!
It doesn't matter how much I try paying attention to the conversation. I couldn't tell you everything word for word even if it's just happened. It's like it goes in one ear and out the other.

Earlier today, a rain storm came through. Maybe a minute before this, something happened, rather not discuss it. Thought about brain tumors and intracranial pressure.

I had a febrile one at 5, one at 21, and one a couple weeks ago. The 2 seizures I had when I was older was just essentially body abuse. Lots of alcohol, use of drugs, sleep deprivation, etc. I have been on Keppra for 3 weeks now, but have been thinking lately about if I really want to do that. I feel like my… read more
