I could be wrong and spouting incredible amounts of nonsense here, but I've noticed that since I started having tonic-clonic seizures, my memory has been horrible. Well, a fair bet worse than usual. I remember reading something about memories being made by neural pathways (synapses?) in the...
I was wondering if anyone has had major memory loss after seizures. Approx. 14 months ago I suffered a set of 5 tonic clonic seizures that left me unconscious for 5 days. Afterwards I suffered major memory loss, I couldn't remember where I worked or jobs I have had In the past 5 years, anyone...
I've been noticing my short term memory has gotten really bad for the past week or so. There hasn't been any changes to my meds whatsoever either. I've been having a lot of auras, myclonic jerks (more than normal), and some staring spells but nothing out of the norm for me. No grand mals that...
Hello, I'm completely new to all of this and very grateful to have somewhere, and someone, to talk to.
My name's Cait, I'm 24 and had my first seizure in October. I was very stressed, sick with some unknown virus (still don't know what it was, I was told samples were sent to the CDC), and just...
Hey everyone, I'm new to this forum and am curious if anyone knows the solution to my problem (no doctors have been able to help). As a brief history, I had peti-mal seizures growing up and one grand-mal seizure, was put on Tegretol and the seizures went away after a year (eventually was on...
I had a first seizure (tonic-clonic) this weekend (6/22/13) that required a little over a day of hospitalization and tests. I woke up on the 22nd feeling nauseous and with the deja vu feeling. Not long after getting out of bed I started vomiting blood and my father said I was acting agitated and...
Hi there,
I think I have been having Partial Seizures for about 10 years. I'm having an EEG tomorrow, and then I have an appointment with a neurologist. I only just went to the doctor about this a few months ago as a result of pushing by my worried partner. I have these roughly once per month...

(but one does not have to have Epilepsy to play

I was at the age of 5 when I was diagnosed with seizures. It was always unclear as to exactly what was causing my seizures until about 6 years ago, which I found out was a Venous Angioma. Unfortunately it is in the left side of my brain and right behind my left eye. So it's inoperable or if I...
NOTE: This is NOT to offend any person with a certain type of epilepsy - I'm serious in this even though it may seem funny - no harm to anyone else intended - I am not that type of person intentionally.
