If you don't mind me asking, what ARE they supposed to do in cases of other seizures?
Well in my case I was having a CPS. All they needed to do was make sure I was safe. Of course time it, and make sure I fully came out of it. Which I usually do in about 5 minutes.
In this instance I was in the EMU for my second round of video monitoring. The first round captured at least two tonic clonics and various readings. But this time I had a CPS while my family was with me in the room. So they pushed the alert button to get the nurses attention. When the nurse came in and started asking me questions, this nurse got lost. My family explained that I was having a seizure, and I would come around in about five minutes. This nurse was puzzled, and kept asking me questions. Eventually I came around and started to respond to the nurse. Don't get me wrong, this was a good nurse. They just need to be more trained in the many different kinds of seizures. The next day I did have a tonic clonic, and the nurses of the EMU were quick on the call.
