I had my first seizure when I was 18 years old, and after lots of testing they diagnosed me with epileptic and nonepileptic seizures. They decided to give me a VNS implant, and it seemed to help at first. I have basically lost all of my friends because I guess they could not put up with me having seizures. I was told I could not continue in the Athletic Training program in college, so I decided to take a break from school for a bit. I am now 25 and taking some online classes until I am ready to actually go to lectures. I am trying to be able to get classes done so that I can apply to nursing school. Anyways, doctors have come to the conclusion that they believe the seizures I am having now are nonepileptic. Is anyone else dealing with nonepileptic seizures?
