After effects of a seizure

Tue, 02/15/2005 - 14:56
I recently had a breakthrough seizure on the bus (I'd missed my meds) and I'm just wondering what the after effects are for people. I must've fallen because I have bruises and my muscles are killing me. The biggest issue is that I've not been able to sleep and I'm not sure if that's because I'm back on the meds or just stress over what happened.

After seizures, I have horrible headache and can't eat for a couple of days. A few days after, I sometimes have visual memory problems. It generally takes about a week to become "normal" once again.
