Based upon my own experience, I know that head and neck injury can cause seizures and I believe they can return. My own seizures were caused by a neck injury from a fall from a ladder. After the ruptured disk was repaired, the seizures disappeared.

I also believe seizures can be caused by sinus problems and know someone who's seizures went away after they had a tumor removed from their sinus.

I suggest you have an ENT do CT scans of your sinuses. I would insist that your doctor do MRI's of your head and neck. I will bet you will find the cause.

Besides my seizures, the neck injury was also causing me migraine activity. This causes light headedness, and weird sensations in the head due to muscle spasms. This can also cause spots, flashes, and streaks of colored lights.

Most neurologists believe that seizures only originate in the brain and don't believe stories like mine. However, I know other people who have gotten rid of their seizures by fixing neck and sinus problems.

The "stress" diagnonses is used all too often by doctors who are guessing what is bothering us. When I first sought help for my seizures, I was given the "stress" diagnoses for about three years. Then we found the ruptured disk in my neck. And unless a doctor has eliminated all possible causes and performed EEG testing, he is just guessing, which is normal for modern doctors. I would recommend that anyone with these symptoms to see a neuroligst who will hopefully do proper testing. Just remember though that they will probably not look for causes unless you insist.

Good Luck...
