Hi everyone,
I had right temporal lobectomy surgery done in March. It's all gone well (so far!), not had a seizure since..
In the past week, I've had a few issues with work colleagues after arecent incident, I COMPLETELY blew this incident out of proportion, it built up in my head, festering over and over. It got the later in the day, and the tears began. I literally sobbed like I was a 2 year old baby, just uncontrollably, profusely sweating, my whole body shaking like I used to during having a seizure!?.
After speaking to a few fiends, it became obviously it was some sort of anxiety attack that I had.
Just wondered if this was something that anyone else has experienced?
The one positive I took for the horribly incident is that it never broke out into a seizure, which this experience would have been a sure fire thing pre-op...
Any advice? I've no idea who to turn to, I don't have an appointment with my hospital consultant anytime soon, I suspect my GP wouldn't be too much assistance, other than begin a course of treatments other people with anxiety may suffer, BUT I'm in a precarious position of still recovering from major brain surgery, top that off with still taking a number of anti epileptic medications etc etc....
It's probably not a simple answer to this problem, but anyone in a similar position, or has been been in the past?
