Thought I would update my seizures seem less lately, still having them but they have cut down quite a bit so seeing how things play out. Now found out I may have an Arrythmia which sucks, but sadly wouldn't surprise me heart disease runs on both sides of my family. Been getting pains in my chest and heart races up to 150-170 bpm and down to 40 bpm so a bit concerning. Oh well I suppose trying to still make an appointment in Ames to see a good doctor cuz in the town I live they suck. How has everyone elses seizures been?
 
We're doing great, seizure wise. Jon's last seizure was Jan 30.

What meds are you on? Some of the seizure meds can cause some arrythmia.
 
Interestingly, magnesium can help with both arrythmias and with seizures... Can't temeber if you are trying a supplement -- maybe it will give you some relief from the heart-racing?
 
Not on any meds as of current haven't tried the magnesium yet. I need the money to get it still, but I applied for two jobs so far just waiting to hear back.
