Last week I was admitted to the hospital because of some surgery complications. I went in on monday, the next thing I know it was wed. From what I was told I had a seizure tuesday night. I couldnt remember getting to the hospital monday, or anything tuesday. Eventially parts of monday came back. I was so hungover wed that I could hardly talk, and it was hard to understand people speaking. By wed night I was feeling better, but still a little off. The hospital must have spazed over the whole thing. They gave me loading doses of dilantin for 3 days plus my normal 1500mg of trileptal. I was over drugged. I could not see or walk straight. I kept telling them it was too much, but they wouldnt listen. They wouldnt let me leave untill saturday, because they didn't think it was safe because I was dizzy, and couldnt walk straight. Well duh too much drugs. It took 3 days to get the extra out of my system, and I feel much better.
 
Holy COW! You certainly have been on a wild ride! Glad you are feeling better.
