Hi. I was just dignosed with epilepsy about 3 months ago. When I had my first one it lasted for over 30 min and of course I landed in the hospital. I had an EEG done and it showed active seizures. I have partial complex seizures and they have been very hard to manage! I now thankfully havent had one for a week now that my meds keep getting increased. I was up to having them 4-5 times a week and it was taking a hard toll on my body. I have noticed that my thinking and speech is a bit slower and gets mixed up. It has been very difficult dealing with them as I also have thoracic outlet syndrome. The thing I hate the most is I have had a couple of them out in public and I get very embaressed by that. Anyone else deal with complex partial seizures?
