Thanks so much everyone for answering my questions. i know I have been asking alot lately.

Another strange thing happened to me yesterday while on the computer. I was sitting there reading something and all of a sudden my eyes rolled back in my head and my head dropped down then my head came back up and that was it. It only lasted a second , I think,and i was awake. What was that?

Also do any of you have trouble with your bladder? I will go to the bathroom and turn around and have to go seven or 8 more time in a row. I also always leak. I've been seen for this and put on meds but they only worked for a short time. The meds were uped and again they worked for only a short time. I also have to go right after any seizure right away.
 
It could have been a SP seizure or a drop attack at the computer.

If your going to the bathroom 7-8 times in a row, have you had your blood sugar tested lately? Low blood sugar can make people go to the bathroom constantly. Are you also extremely fatigued? Is your vision effected? If so, that could be an indication of diabetes. Often times after a seizure, one's blood sugar is also low. Or maybe you could have a bladder infection.
 
Don't feel bad for posting again.
That's what we're all here for! Part of my simple partials involve drop attacks and they happen so suddenly that you wonder...where they heck did that come from? There isn't always a trigger but it's interesting that you were on the computer. Maybe you're a little photosensitive?
I often have to go to the washroom after a cluster but it's not a chronic problem for me.
Maybe you simply have a bladder infection?
I sometimes leak when I sneeze but I've had 3 kids so I think that's a different story! Tee hee.
 
I've had alot of bladder infections. Believe me i know if I have one.The docs did a test and said I didn't empty my bladder all the way. I was givin meds but as i said they work for alittle while then stop working. They never do say why I cant empty my bladder, just heres meds have a nice day.
 
I have this bladder problem too. After you go wait a few sec. then stand up or straight up again and see if you go again. This seems to help me. I feel sometimes I have to go before and after everything I do. I also have a leaky problem and nerve damage in that area so it could be cause by that but always have to go after a seizure like right away.
 
I would like to be able to wait until after a seizure to go to the bathroom! Most of the time it just doesn't work out that way :(
 
I do stand up and sit down again several times but still end up back in the bathroom minutes later.
I dont always wait till after the seizure either huskymom. I agree much better to go after.
