Hi everyone! I was just recently diagnosed with epilepsy. I actually started having seizures at 12 but was unaware it was a seizure. I tried speaking to my parents but undoubtedly made no sense to then. They came and went over the years. A few years ago they came back so I decided, being an adult, to research the symptoms. This us when I fond they might be seizures. Upon making an appointment to see a physician they stopped so I let it go, thinking it was a fluke. A few months ago they came back with a vengeance. I decided something had to be done. After testing and medical history the neurologist determined it was epilepsy. So here I am, finally working in the field I studied in college and now I'm jobless :-( The requirements of my job require me to travel daily and with current seizures and exhausting my FMLA it's just over. Luckily I can draw long term disability from work but it's frustrating. I feel like all my hard work has been for naught.
Yeah I'm a bit cranky ;-)
So here I am with tons of questions and an internet search that offers either worst case scenarios or repeats of what I know. I come searching for answers
and others with the disorder. I look forward to getting to know you all!
