Hi.
I tried lowering my meds a few days ago. Yesterday morning I had a scary experience... I dont know if it was a seizure, or an aura that almost proceeded a big seizure... but here is what happened...
I was enjoying morning coffee on my hammock.. v relaxed...had just had a few sips.. and then I got very very light headed, dizzy and my body went numb... I freaked out becuase it felt like I was about to black out, and hten it passed.
Later on in the afternoon I was in the shower and something happened becuase I came around and the shower head was on the floor spraying water into my face.... when I came out the shower I said to my friend "I think i just had a seizure in the shower" she said "oh yeah I wondered what you were rambling loudly about in the shower"
Later on after that I had many jerks. I was laid on the sofa trying to rest and I was looking out the window at the trees. I was just thinking.. man .. God just take me home now...didnt want to take klonopin, but then realized I have been in simple partial status epilepticus before and it went on for a long time...and so this would have taken ages anyway.. so I took the meds.
I am on my menstural cycle so this may be why. When I finish my menstural cycle I will try again to lower medications.. but this so far has been a dissapoitnment.
I am going to the app tomorrow regarding the TNS study down-town... I changed my mind about this and decided to try and get into it.. so I will be going tomorrow. Since this is a latest non-med treatment... it might be good...and I have had very low self esteem lately it might be good to be a part of something.. I think it might help me.
