"On a separate note, you didn't mention in your post if you have epilepsy or a seizure disorder; you only mentioned having a seizure while you were on Neurontin and Lyrica. If you are not on those meds and don;t have seizures on a regular basis, the chance of what you are experiencing now being a seizure is far, far less than some one who has epilepsy/seizures on a regular basis."




Hello L2L,

The first seizure I ever had was about a year and a half ago at age 49.
My neurologist totally off-prescribed a medication to help me sleep
because of sleep oriented trigeminal nerve pain snaps deep, deep inside
my nose were an incompetent ENT doctor burned me with a CO2 laser
back in 2004, after doing some surgeries for sinusitis I got in 2002.

The medication the neuro prescribed for sleep was Seroquel, a very
dangerous medication that is for people who are psychotic. He
wanted the *side effect* to put me to sleep. Well, I went to sleep
alright, then the next night I came home I felt a little tired and fell
asleep without taking the Seroquel and had a grand mal seizure.

Since that time, I had 3 or 4 seizures while using Neurontin and
Lyrica, and I seem to have lost part of my memory and thought
process while on these anti-seizure drugs which were given to
me for nerve pain. I've been tested 3 times for epilepsy, all negative.

It's possible that by giving an anti-seizure drug to someone who
does not have epilepsy can induce a seizure. However, it all started
with the Seroquel.
