had my first secondary generalized seizure yesterday, ive never had one before to my knowledge..
i was out gardening in the sun with my dad for a couple of hours and had some bad simple partials in a row, but then had to get ready for a party in a friends so went to shower and shave etc, felt an urge to vomit and the next thing i know i wake up on the bathroom floor with my dad standing over me. dont remember much after for a bit, i was totally out of it, i kept saying i had to fix the shower and asking what happened to me.
so i went to the doc and he thinks it was a collection of things led to it. i hadnt eaten all day cause i was going to a bbq party and was gonna stuff my face there, i was out in the sun for ages, im on antibiotics and steroids for a throat thing and im weaning off keppra onto trileptal. it was all a bit mad. i hit my head off something when i fell so its the day after i feel like ive been beaten and my head is killing me still.
just wanted to share and ask is this normal, ive been told to contact my epilepsy nurse tomorrow and fill her in. im not too put out by the whole situation and i would have thought i would be but it still seems unreal. i dont know really. any words of wisdom???????????????????
