Definitely NONE of the above!

Thanks very much for this excellent presentation.

You wrote: "[An attack] also does not include single paroxysmal events (sudden jerks, brief loss of vision, single spasms of a muscle, a single bout of dizziness). If the single event occurs mutliple times over a period of more than 24 hours it would qualify as an attack."

If that second sentence is true, then I certainly HAVE had attacks, quite a few of them! (Not that it made any difference to the neurologists I saw back in the way old days when I was still seeing neurologists...) I also had other things that lasted weeks or months that I would consider an attack but that they could not see (or did not try hard enough to see).

Quix, I am sure your outline above will help a lot of people understand their situation better. Thanks for taking the time to do that. Good for you!
