My advice to you is to start seeing an Epileptologist at an Epilepsy center you can find these Drs. at large hospitals or university hospitals these Drs. specialize in epilepsy. Start keeping track of each time a possible sz. happens write down what time it happens on a calendar along with a description of the sz. this will help the Dr. see if you have a pattern in your sz. if they happen at certain times of the day or night and what days of the month. As far as being moody that can happen from either the med or the area of the brain that is triggering the sz. Try taking vitamin B12 1000 mcg. once a day for adults. Cut back on the carbs and starch foods and stay away from anything with nutra sweet because the nutra sweet causing more electrical activity in a persons brain and can trigger sz. sometimes. Something else you should do is if you go to the theater for a movie, shut your eyes and turn your head when they have flashing light coming out. This can cause a seizure to start. While playing the game with your daughter, if it had bright flashing lights going on that could of triggered to seizure.

Please keep us up to date on your condition. Again welcome, looking forward to seeing you around. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Hi Darlene,
Im a Parkinson patient.I use to go to a movement disorder clinic but found the doctors to be not the quality I need.The business model has kept them to rush their patients.It's sad because right now Im without a doctor but I'm determined in finding one that will work for me.
