Last night was our local Relay For Life, my company has had a team since 2003 and I had to go, I only made it a few hours but I went and supported a great cause.

I received a disturbing email from my coworkers yesterday with their account of what happened to me during the seizure and it freaked me out. They said I seemed to stop breathing and when they rolled me on my side I made deep gurgling sounds, plus the convulsions and foaming at the mouth. I can only imagine how scared they were bu...

Today is a week since the seizure without any reoccurrence YAY!

I see the neurologist and go for a MRI on Monday, I'm still getting headaches and get very tired quickly. My diet isn't too good because I'm not eating regularly. I think I'm going to switch over to a low carb diet while I am restricted from physical activity...I still need to lose weight while I take care of myself. If I increase my veggies, decrease my carbs and moderate my protein I should be able to give my body what it ne...

Today is the first day since the seizure I feel anything like myself. I'm staying home from work until I see the neurologist and get cleared because I know my impatience can be my worst enemy.

It's been 5 days since I had the seizure and still feeling very tired. I saw my primary doctor yesterday, I have to have a MRI and see a neurologist, both appointments are Monday. There is a chance I could have had a slight stroke only a test that measures brain waves can tell for sure. The doctor said a stroke could cause a seizure. All I know is I get tired easily now and seem to be getting headaches on and off throughout the day.

I am going stir crazy not working but know I'm not ready ...

I don't even know where to start, Friday morning one minute I'm at my desk the next I was on the floor...I had a seizure at work. My coworkers removed me from my chair, laid me on the floor, on my side , called 911 and watched helplessly as I went into full convulsions and began to foam at the mouth. at the hospital they ruled out a brain tumor with a X-ray and CATscan but want me to follow up with a neurologist for a MRI. I've never had a seizure before in my life and honestly I'm grateful the...
