mailorderannie,
![]() Absence (petit mal), where a person just stares, complex partial where he may stare, see colors in his eyes, smell odd odours, get a nervous feeling in his stomach (simple partial sz.) or maybe a tonic clonic sz. (grand mal). Many times people have headaches after seizures. You should see an Epileptologist (Dr. specializing in epilepys) at an Epilepsy Center which are usually at University or big hospitals. In 2009 I saw one, ending up with brain surgery, since then I have not had another one. Your need to cut out the carbs and starch foods because they will trigger seizures. Start keeping track of your seizures by writing them down on a calendar, by doing this the Dr. may see a pattern in your seizures. Get yourself on vitamin B12 500 mcg. once a day. Also avoid very bright light, like at a theater, the flashing can bring on a seizure. Just close you eyes and turn your head at that time. Please keep us up to date on your condition. Again welcome, looking forward to seeing you around. My thoughts and prayers are with you. ![]() ![]()
