Unhappy I'm Starting To Get Worried Now. Should I Be?


So today has been really bad. I have been having tonic clonic seizures for the last 3 days and today I will be doing something or thinking of something and I all of a sudden forget what I m doing or thinking.
Could this be becuase of the tonic clonic seizures? I m not on Amy meds yet becuase the doc in crescent city keep not accepting me. I also feel like I could have a seizure any min and I don't want to. I really wish I had a friend close by who can help me and understand me.

The fact is that, yes the seizures can be causing your loss of memory and forgetfulness. It happened to my daughter many times, and she had more than 50+ tonic clonic seizures. She even suffered a few months of amnesia. However, my research showed me that the blood sugar imbalance can not only cause the seizure disorder she was having, it can also cause the memory loss as that part of the brain is affected.

What do you think you can do to be proactive in your own self care? Are you eating well, and staying hydrated. Getting enough sleep, and doing relaxation techniques.

Everyone here understands what you are going through. Perhaps you can find another doctor to have a consultation with.
