I apparently had another seizure early this morning. I spent at least six hours in a severe postictal state. Most of that time was spent essentially unconscious (very deep sleep). It was around 3 pm before I woke and felt mostly normal. I still have a bit of a headache, but that’s normal for me.
During the time I was conscious this morning, I was nauseous, vomiting, and so dizzy I could barely stand. Actually I couldn’t sit either, not even long enough to urinate. As soon as I got back to horizontal, and in bed, the dizziness,etc. stopped and I passed out within minutes.
No, I didn’t call the neurologist. He didn’t even respond to my call to the nurse back on June 5-6 when nearly the exact same thing happened. At least today I didn’t injure myself from convulsions. I have no memory of the seizure itself, but that too is normal for me. I never remember anything but the postictal period.
I didn’t feel like eating after I finally woke up, so today was a fasting day. I drank about 2/3 a normal day’s water. I’ll be going back to sleep relatively soon. I’m in bed with lights out while I type this.
I promise, I’m okay. Just another fun day in spoonie land.

Jeez this is awful. At least it sounds it to me. Everyone has their own definition of normal. I can’t believe your doc didn’t check up with you, that’s not right. Well, I’m glad you’re doing good.

I was disappointed about that as well. I guess he was satisfied that the nurse who interviewed me was thorough enough. I know these will happen occasionally, and no medication will stop them all. Life with epilepsy, eh? 🤷♀️

I guess. Living with epilepsy is so foreign to me. I can’t imagine it.
