    Welcome to CWE. I am so sorry that you have had such a hard time. My daughter was recently diagnosed and I too have found that hindsight is 20/20. We realize that she too had seizures prior to her first grand mal/tonic clonic. (In case, you are unaware the terms are interchangeable however, Tonic Clonic is the newer terminology.) Please feel free to send me a message or to start a thread in the Padded Room when you're feeling all alone. I know that this can be very overwhelming but I think you'll find that posting can be very theraputic. At least it has been for me. Good luck to you.

    Seizure Background
    I had my first grand mal seizure in 2004 after I had my second son. The doctors that it was just do to giving birth and not anther word was said. On February 16, 2008 I had anther grand mal seizure. I was at home. After some tests I was told that I have epilepsy. After talking to the doctors some more I found out that I have been having different types of seizures for years. I just thought they were nothen and I just didn't talk about them. I now have to face this with two small children to worry about. I am currently in school to get my nursing degree. They said it is all do to a car accident I had back in 2000. These last few days have not been easy. I am not allowed to be alone because I have had a reaction to my medicine and now I am not on any for a few days. I still can't be alone until I get new medicine and they know that one is working. I feel alone. I am hoping that this will help.
