Default Break through seizure
Hello everyone, Well sadly I had a breakthrough Tonic Clonic seizure a few days ago. My mom was already taking me to the hospital for an Asthma attack when I had my aura and then the big seizure. I am doing fine just a little bummed because I hadn't had a seizure for a few months. I'm very thankful that my mom was behind the wheel and not me. I hope everyone is doing well

Hi Tiger Lilly,
I'm so sorry to hear that you had a tc sz. I hope things are going better for you now. It could be possible that your asthma attack triggered the sz. or if had a low pressure in the weather that may have triggered the sz. also. I know last month I had a myoclonic sz. and spilled hot coffee all over myself. It was the first one I had since January. Take it easy and take note if low pressure in the weather is triggering your sz. Here's wishing you well and May God Bless You!

Sue

I am so sad to hear of your seizure. There are many times when we have one it just hits us in the heart, Just don't let your hopes get down and try to get back on track.

As Sue said it could be Asthma attack. A lot of the times with myself it happens when my immune system is down.

Hang in there!!

Darlene

Default seizures starting up again
hi tigerlilly,
That isn't a shock to me. I have a friend that had the right temporal lobectomy. Then she went 10 and a half years seizure free, and then they started up again. So you always have to remember you can be optimistic, but no treatment is perfect. Now the research scientist's are saying they feel they're a step away from a cure for epilepsy. But it will be technical, not medication.
