Default Hello

Hello my name is Ariel (I go by AC) and I am 23 years old. I have three beautiful children my daughter's Jayde (3) and Eris (2 in April) and a son Michael (1.5 months). I have epilepsy. I have had it since I was about 7 years old, but somehow it was misdiagnosed as ADHD. I have grand mals that started when I was 19 and I have myoclonic jerks and absence seizures that I have has since I was 7. I have also just recently (July) started having seizures where I just shake, but don't stiffen. I have had abnormal EEGs but my neurologist is trying to say that I don't have epilepsy and that they are pseudo seizures. I have been diagnosed with epilepsy since June of 2012 when I was pregnant with my oldest. I have most grand mals at night and am unaware that I had them except for a really bad pain in my rib and being extremely tired. I do have them during the day sometimes but I usually get an aura before my day ones. I suffer with the myoclonic jerks and absence seizures several times a day.
