It's so disrespectful for them to ignore your wishes. They need to sit down and read more about 'normal' seizures and chill the fuck out.
 
I 100% about the hospital. ... It is an expensive waste of time.
...No noticeable signs of distress, other than finding herself on the ground with people surrounding her. Something she told me she hated.

I agree infinity%
 
...She did everything so fast, I don't think it hardly interrupted her regular appointment schedule.

yeah - the ERs do everything so fast, it seems like no time at all before I have a brand new $8,000 ER bill in my face before I have any idea what is going on.
I mean - thanks a lot and all, but how about we all just leave me the fuck alone next time?
 
I have been told I seem to hold my breathe a take an extremely big breath in then just don't let it out. To the point where I've actually had to been forced to let it out. Not sure why and it definitely seems odd. I have asthma on top of seizures though so maybe that has something to do with it.
