Hi,
I would like to thank everyone for their responses. I feel really welcomed here.
I went to my neurologist today since I had what I thought was some kinda of absent seizure. It turns out the Doctor said I had a Complex/partial seizure while I was getting my long term EEG done. I thought it was just a tonic/clonic but she said it started out as a partial (i guess where can lose consiusness and maybe twitch in certain parts-like arms, etc.) ((at least I think that is what she meant)).
So she said it was the same thing where I might have "zoned" at work then came back.
If someone could please help clarify more? I seemed to have lost literally 1/2 hour of time in the morning before work. It was 6:30 when I started to put on make-up, then all of a sudden, like normal I was still ready and the radio said it was 7:00. Never had that happen before!! I though with absent seizures you would only for a minute or so, not that long. Can anyone help with what could have happened? At work it was only a little time but losing that time in the morning really has me confused. Unless it's some other type but I'm not sure. It's hard to get a diagnoses from the Doc. compared to people that have seizures.
Thank you again everyone!!!
