And after all that mess i ended up having another huge tonic clonic a couple weeks later that lasted 20min and they put in a central line and one of those needles that they have to drill into your shin, and i didnt come out of the seizure, so they said if that didnt bring me out of it, then obvisly i wasnt having a pseudo seizure. Keep fighting for your son for help!
Did they ever find out what was causing your seizures?

Nope. I just have simple and complex partial seizures and myoclonics and secondary tonic clonics. They dont know why i started having them, because I was 19 when i started having them. So we just treat them the best we can. When im to tired, stressed, or not feeling good is when i have them the most.
