Oh hon, I'm so sorry. I hope you're not in too much pain. Ask for a cheerful color for the cast.

I'm sorry to hear that Rae, I hope it's not as bad as it first seems.

Really sucks to come out of a seizure and end up taking yourself to the hospital for some injury. Done that a few times myself.

Hi Rae,

Very sorry to hear that you had a very nasty seizure earlier today and have possibly broken/sprained both writsts and elbow. Hoping your injuries are much less serious then you think they are. Hoping that if they you have got way with only minor sprains to only one of the mentioned joints at the very worst - and that all injuries heal quickly and that you are soon 100% again.

Also really hoping you are feeling much better very soon. Please do let us know how you got on!!! Hoping for the best for you!!!

(((Rae))) (((Rae))) (((Rae)))

At least you won't get carpal tunnel syndrome now... I hope you heal quickly. And find a way to stop these pesky seizures!

Hi Rae,

Very sorry to hear/read that both of wrists are broken but happy that you elbow is okay. Hoping - like many others on here - that you heal quickly and are soon feel 100% again. Also hoping that you can become seizure-free or at least more gain more control over your epilepsy and your seizures very soon!

Thanks for the update!!!

Susan
