Default no no no no no please no

In Feb I had that terrible surgery removing the diffuse oligodendroglioma tumor and a bit of my hippocampus which had been causing my seizures since 1990 and I hadn't had a seizure since then. Wow. Lucky me. In August the epi told me to drive again!

Nine months with no seizures -- nine months.

Nov. 25 I had a partial complex sz but what's one sz, huh? I tried desperately to just ignore it. I did stop driving.

This morning I've had THREE seizures. What's going on? Why? What's happening? Why?

I phoned the neuro surgeon office and I'm waiting - fat chance - for someone to call back. My next appointment there is Jan 22. I have a fuzzy memory of him saying that if I had more sz I would need more hippocampus removed. OMG - more surgery ?!?

Thank you Alffe and Curious. Bless your kind hearts. --

I'm wallowing in self pity ~sigh~ I'll try to get passed that.
