Hello fellow ep's,
I'm from Uk and had epilepsy for ten years, I had been fit free for five years until it reared its ugly head last February.
Thought it was time to talk about my illness and deal with it, rather that pretending it does not affect me.
I have chlonic Tonic seizures, which leaves me confused,cold and like I have been run over by a truck.
My fiance has only seen me have one seizure and is very scared and concerned and never wants me to drive agan.
I get married in October and want to start trying for a baby ASAP, so any support, guidance & advice on epilepsy and conception, pregnancy & birth would be most welcome.
I am also in the LONG process of getting my licence back from DVLA (UK driving authorities), so any tips or support here would also be great.
In the mean time looking forward to sharing your stories with you all and hope I can offer some support in the future.
