Hi All
Had very scary experince two weeks ago. Had just finished work and was walking down the road with a friend of mine at 5pm (thank god she was with me) when I suddenly felt dizzy and needed to sit down. Thankfully there was a bus stop nearby and thats all I remembered.....my friend and various bystanders witnessed me having a seizure for 30 seconds.. I came to in the ambulance and was very confused and disorientated. A very frightening experience. CT was clear. On waiting list for EEG. I wasn't incontinent and didn't bite my tounge. My calf 's were very sore for days afterwards and my jaw and teeth. To be fair..I had been burning the candle at both ends..had a biggish nite the night before, weeks of not sleeping properly (was taking sleeping tabs) relationship break up and not eating well and working in demanding job. Has anyone else had a similar experience? obviously the universe was trying to tell me something SLOW DOWN. Well it worked. Im just paranoid that it will happen again. Would like to be able to have a social drink without worrying so much. HELP!
