Flashing lights..getting ridiculous

[eliza0104]

I was dx with simple partial (due to olfactory hallucinations of ammonia smell). I've been put on Lamictal and have a follow up on Wed. I had an EEG which was normal, even though I had arm jerks during the strobe light portion. Lately, I have to be careful with anything I watch on TV with rapidly moving lights. America's Got Talent with the dancers with light effects, the movie last night of Interstellar, to name a few. It seems to be getting worse :/ I'm getting worried its going to progress.

Yeah I feel you...it does suck...big time...I've been having these panic-like dizzy spells a lot lately with an occasional upset stomach feeling like I can't breathe and annoying muscle contractions/trembling...my body sometimes seems to be more sensitive at certain times especially when I eat...???

but yeah I have to be careful with these damn flashing lights/repetitive patterns too...hang in there :hugs:

For some people sunglasses/polarized lenses can help with light sensitivity. Might be a worth a try. See: http://irlen.com/

Yup got some myself...a pair of badass Nike's 8) (I love sports apparel...I.E. Adidas, Nike, Under Armour etc....)

The aviators look sexy on hot women though (and so does leather hehe)
