I have horrible after effects!!! My head is usually pounding, my arms and legs feel like jello. I feel so weak and I dont want to move. Most of the time my mouth hurts from gritting my jaw during and biting off pieces of my tounge. I usually sleep for a few days after a seizure.

I also feel as if I have been hit by a bus the next day. Muscles in the legs, neck and back feel as though I have done strenuous exercises, and if I bite my mouth, that is excruciating for a while. I find a herbal remedy helps for the bruising - it is called Arnica here in South Africa. One justs dissolves a few little pills under the tongue. You are not alone!
