Shiver my timbers!

I finally started my dental work. They removed 5 teeth yesterday. It was an intense hour of yanking. Fortunately my pain threshold is still very high.
Two Advil and I slept through the night.
Problem started in the morning. Out of nowhere I got freezing cold and couldn’t stop shivering. I climbed back into bed and couldn’t relax my body. My teeth were chattering. If I really focused I could stop for a minute. This went on for 1/2 hour. I finally passed out and slept most of the day.
Sure does feel like i had a seizure. This would be a new type I Don’t like it one bit.

Hi Heavy Kevy,

I'm sorry that you had to go to the dentist and that you may have had a seizure. Start keeping track and take note if when you
wake up in the morning you feel tired even though you got a good night's sleep because I would wake up exhausted and that's
when my Epileptologist did a sleep study on me and they found I was having seizures in my sleep and they would happen about
2-3 hrs. before I would wake up. I was put on Vimpat and since then that form of seizure stopped.

When it comes to taking care of the teeth after you brush your teeth rinse your mouth out with hydrogen peroxide it tastes
rotten but it keeps your teeth white and healthy. My dentist told me to do this yrs. ago and I have only had 2 cavities.
I wish you the best of luck and May God Bless You,

Sue

Thanks Sue!!
This is dental work I’ve been putting off for two years. It’s still strange that I’m not feeling pain correctly.
I’m mostly upset about the seizure. If it even was one. I couldn’t stop shivering and I was conscious. That’s never happened.
I have a prescription for Valium, for when I’m feeling Manic. I took one during it because I was looking for any relief. It may have helped. I also have a rescue inhaler, but I wasn’t sure what was going on.
Thank you Sue!!
I so needed to tell someone that could relate somewhat.
I’m feeling better tonight.

My wife did just remind me that I had the chills when I got Covid. There’s a flu going around, but I don’t have any symptoms.

I know what the postictal state feels like at this point.

Hi Heavy Kevy,

My cousin is a Dr. and he has dealt with covid since it broke out. He told me to start taking zinc 50 mg. once a day
to help fight off the covid so you may want to try that just to play it safe. I also know that zinc helps reduce seizures.
I wish you only the best and May God Bless You,

Sue

Thanks Sue,
I really think that I had a seizure. After sleeping most of the day yesterday. I was able to get a decent nights sleep as well.

I’m feeling much better today “mentally”. Still no pain from my 5 extractions. (Very Strange).
I probably shouldn’t have done them all at once. It was a horrifying experience.
