Default Article about seizures that are non-epileptic

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0801091104.htm

Hi friends,

This was sent to me. I did not read anything but the title but know a lot of our group deals with seizures and wanted to get it out to you all.

Struggling here. Vacation and death of father-in-law and week long family gatherings got me bad. Sleeping A LOT.

Jenna

Hi Jenna,

Thanks for the article. It had a lot of good information. I hope you will be feeling better since everything that's happened to you and your family recently has caused this ongoing struggle for you. It was surprising to me that your group discusses these. Are these common with brain injuries?

Please take care and find some peace, Jenna. M-i-m

ugh...more news about how now even some seizures are psychogenic. ]

im skeptical of anything that comes out of psychiatric community.
I never had internal tremors or one night of sleep problems my whole life. they started right after head injury and first thing doctors still say is see a shrink could be psychosomatic. but there's a lot of money to be made there.


it reminds me when oxycontin was only going to be used for cancer, pharma companies said. scouts honor...a zillion addicts later here we are
