Then July of 2011 I wa driving home and woke up in an ambulance. They had thought I had a seizure. Again I had a ct scan and blood test that all came back normal. This time I had an eeg that came back normal. The thin of it is.....I had a younger sister that started having seizures when she was a teenager. They were clonic tonic seizures. She was diagnosed with epilepsy and given Dilantin. As long as she took her Dilantin she was fine. However she hated relying on the pills and decided she was going to stop taking them. Well in 2003 her husband went home to find her dead. I have a neuro appointment next month but the waiting is killing me. All these thoughts run through my head do maybe have a brain tumor the ct scans didnt pick up or is it possible I have what my sister had. I spend so much time searching the net and that seems to only make things worse any help would be apprciated.

Hi there.

Is there any way you can move up your neuro appt.? Not that you need to do this but YOU need to do it if it's possible to get your peace of mind back. All this waiting and worrying (and I am so sorry about your sister) must be causing such stress on your mind.

I'm sure others more knowledgeable than me will come along and give you more input. Just know that you are not alone. You are in my prayers.

Melody
