Default Starting Over

Hello again everyone.
Man, it's been a long time since I've posted regularly. Someone once said that people only post when things aren't going well, when things are good they move on... That's actually pretty true. I used to post pretty regularly, then moved on and for the last few months have been looking for this site and haven't been able to find it.
I've been seizure free for four years. Or so I thought. I started having what I thought were possibly simple partials about six months ago and some serious headaches (which have been known to plague me before). I questioned hormones, blood sugar levels and again returning seizures. I had a brain tumor removed 4 years ago Aug. 21 and had been seizure free since then. I went to the neuro for the first time in over two years this last week (the headaches are just too much for me now) and she said I'm definitely having migraines and she thinks simples occasionally too. Uughh.. I started Topamax on Wednesday night.

Kinda creepy to be going down this road again,but like she said better to get it early and before it gets worse... Maybe in a couple of years I can try going off meds and they will be gone. Who knows.

Either way, I guess... I'm back.
