Tingling, Numbness, can be a part of a Seizure,
but it also can be something else -
something extremely SERIOUS!

You need to discuss this with your Neurologist
as soon as possible, like TODAY!

If it is on your left side, it can also be a sign
of T.I.A. - transient ischemic attack aka mini-
stroke or a Heart Attack; especially if your
experiencing numbness on your left side of
your face, arms, legs, body - it's an emergency
and you should go to the Hospital right away
and be checked out as soon as possible!

Todd's Paralysis also can mimic a T.I.A. in this
fashion as well; it's too dangerous to toy around
with. There is such thing as Seizure-Stroke.

I've had it, unfortunately, and it's not funny nor
is it something to put off or delay, it requires
medical attention immediately. It doesn't matter
where you are in the world - it can KILL, cause
brain damage, and cause a whole new set of
medical problems if you go untreated. Don't
put yourself in jeopardy.

Take it from me, who's been through it, it's no
laughing matter!

What is Stroke?


Stroke is the third leading cause of death in America and the No. 1 cause of adult disability.

80% of strokes are preventable; you can prevent a stroke!


What is a stroke?


A stroke or "brain attack" occurs when a blood clot blocks an artery (a blood vessel that carries blood from the heart to the body) or a blood vessel (a tube through which the blood moves through the body) breaks, interrupting blood flow to an area of the brain. When either of these things happen, brain cells begin to die and brain damage occurs.

When brain cells die during a stroke, abilities controlled by that area of the brain are lost. These abilities include speech, movement and memory. How a stroke patient is affected depends on where the stroke occurs in the brain and how much the brain is damaged.

For example, someone who has a small stroke may experience only minor problems such as weakness of an arm or leg. People who have larger strokes may be paralyzed on one side or lose their ability to speak. Some people recover completely from strokes, but more than 2/3 of survivors will have some type of disability.

It could also be a sign that AED levels in your blood stream are too high (toxic). Has your doc/hospital done a blood test to check your med levels?

Caz:

You may want to read the links that I had
posted in this thread in the Foyer in addition,
tingling may be related to a "Reflex Seizure".
