Seizures of some sort?

[Kyla]

I'll try to explain my events as best I can that won't take too long. But as most of you know, there really is no easy way to explain all this.
I usually stare off when ever during the day or sometimes I find that once I'm done daydreaming I'll be in the middle of one (if that makes sense). This whole time my vision is blurred, sometimes feels like I'm going crossed eyed. I'm so relaxed during these and most of the time I'll stay on top of what's happening around me (unless it involves movement then I'll probably stop) but can't really proceed into action until it's over. I can talk during these but I seriously prefer not to, same goes with movement. A lot of my movements are slow during these. I try to cover them up as best I can in public, but I probably look weird doing it. But sometimes if I'm alone and I have one, I can get so deeply into one and my mouth just stays open and I breath kinda loudly. I'm also pretty convinced that something is going on at night with me too. I used to have night terrors when I was younger and recently I've had some pretty disturbing dreams and the next morning I'll wake up totally out of it and hazy. The last three nights I had dreams and I feel so out of it, especially today, I nearly slept in all my classes and just woke from a nap. This weird feeling actually happens 24/7 but it carries in intensity especially when I dream. The weird feeling I'm talking about is kind of like I'm not really here, or things are supper hazy. I've woken up a lot in the middle of the night sometimes as well. I was thinking this is all linked to my concussion that I had about 3 or 4 years ago but I'm not sure.

Anyone else have stuff like this? Please share, I'm concerned if it's nothing or if I'm inducing these.

PS: I've had and EEG and MRI but they came back normal (I don't see how the EEG was effective because I didn't even have an event while hooked up)

I have never had anything like what you described.

It is not unusual for EEG and MRI to come back normal for most of us with E. Most will never know the reason for the E.

what did the Dr. tell you after the test were done?

 

[Kyla]

you see that's what I was mad about, after the tests were done, my doc just said they came back normal and left it at that, it was only 2 weeks ago I brought it up to my doctor that it's all still going on.

Can you get a sleep study done? It sounds like you may be having some sort of issues at night (possibly seizures), that are qualitatively messing with your sleep. If so, then the fatigue may be also causing the daytime symptoms that you describe.

Blurry vision, and being in a "half-present" mental state that you can't control are signs that there is something going on. You may need to be persistent with your docs to get a diagnosis and a plan for treatment.

Just keep on telling the doctors whats going on hope your ok!

Keep on it like the others said. Also look into all the diff. forums, I ask this because I've learned more here than at a Dr.

The inform. here will also help you in what to ask.
