Wink new here too


Hi all im new to this forum.. I got properly diagnosed with epilepsy about 6 years ago. I have partial and grand mal seizures as well as absances. My seizures are still uncontrolled and can have up to 5 a day. Have recently found out that my day dreamin as a child might of been mild absances that were undiagnosed. Im also dislexic and have mild adhd, with 4 children undergoing tests for all the above.

Hi Dawn, welcome to the forum.

I moved your post to it's own thread so your introduction would be more visible.

Your story is very familiar. Please browse around and make yourself at home here.
