The electrical storm in my brain.
Some symptoms of what is wrong with me:
For years now, since I was in high school my hands shake. This comes and goes.
At night I have always woken up having violent bad dreams. Shaking uncontrollably etc.
I have always been prone to loose mental focus, I have always blamed this on a self diagnosis of A.D.D.
It has now progressed to what full blown blacking out.
What the doctor told me went like this.
“What is happening to you is you are having seizures.”
"your EEG showed seizure responses in your brain"
“And during my tenure, I could count on one hand how many times I have diagnosed epilepsy”
“It is exceptionally rare, and in your case I believe it can be controlled with medication”
“Sorry about the scare, but I didn’t want to wait until I get back from Europe to talk to you.”
As this diagnosis is rather new to me, the next posts will be detailing what I have learned so far, and what problems I have encountered
