TL; DR: The procedure was quite uneventful. I have an implant (or as my heart sister called it, an alien implant) in my chest. It’s under the skin of my left breast, which is tender and sore at the incision site.

Spoonie News – Seizure?
2 NovI 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.
