Hi All,
I'm trying desperately to regain some independence. My son moved home last year when I got divorced, and I'm tired of depending on him so deeply. I want to let the poor kid have his own life!
He's not comfortable with the idea of moving back into his own place, until we have a solid working plan.
So one of the things I've been looking at is a good smartwatch with a good seizure detection program.
All of the apps I see online, SeizAlarm, the Embrace Watch, the Smart Watch from Smart Monitor.... they all seem to have fairly mixed reviews, and none of the reviews seem to be recent. The most recent one I found was from 10/2016.
It seems like one of the big problems with this technology is movement. I guess, people who tend to move less during their seizures may not trigger notifications to their caretakers each time a seizure comes. My son tells me this is not a problem for me, there has historically always been A LOT of movement with my seizures.
So, knowing that I really tend to flail around - does anyone have any suggestions for a watch/app/phone combination that they really feel will do the trick?
Thanks,
Dawn
