a big hello to you all my name is emma and i was dx in july 2009 combination of total seizures and absence seizures.have has absence seizures since i was a child my family just though i was day dreaming!!
total seizures started when i was pregnant then total seizures needed medication after a viral infection after the birth of my second son after trying 4 different meds i have settled well on troprimate.
then just before the new year i got the flu and my seizures kicked off agin big time and my absences seizures have just been getting worse the control i did have has not been lost and i feel so low about it i feel like it's 1 step forward and 3 steps back!!
to top it all off i'm having no support from my work i work as a nurse and i was off work sick for 7 months while they got my seizures under some sort of control i returmed to work in nov and now i'm off sick again i have been off a week and i know my work are not happy at all but what can i do?? i'm having at least 2 total seizures a day and absences onces or twice an hour!! it makes me forgot what i'm doing or sometimes where i am for a minute or 2 do they really want me to be around patients like this what i i gave the wrong medication or gave to much if i had a absence in between??? i so worried i'll lose my job
as you can tell i'm so stress out about this and i really don't mean to rant an like i have!!!
nice to meet you all xx
