Hello, My name is Stuart Palm, and I am not exactly epileptic. I am sure there are many out there who have related seizure conditions that are not described directly as epilepsy and I fall in that category. I have a brain full of cavernomas and I am not sure if thats spelled correctly. Cavernomas are brain malformations consisting of veins and such. I have something like nine of them, well one was removed, so perhaps eight. I had one removed a year and a half ago via brain surgery because it caused grand mal seizures so bad I dislocated both my shoulders. I am on Keppra, and they just let me start driving again. If there is anyone out there going through that great fear of pre-brain surgery or the general anxiety of will I have another seizure, my heart goes out to you.

On a lighter note, I am a corporate and private entertainer. I do a feats of the human mind show, during the show I demonstrate the ability to memorize an entire magazine, I demonstrate the psycometric powers alla Sherlock Homes, and I do a thought reading demonstration. Loads of fun. If anyone is having memory troubles, I have loads of advice. Best of wishes to all. Don't let these conditions get you down. We are all valuable parts of this great universe. Stuart
 
Hi Stuart, welcome to the forum. :hello:

Memorize a magazine, eh? It's not Playboy is it? :roflmao:
 
Bernard....?
I saw how some guy was able to learn the order of about 5 stacks of cards. Amazing.

Welcome Stuart! I am a bit curious why your malformations do not fall into the area of Epilepsy? I sure wish I had your abilities.
