Im Margie,
I have learned to exercise moderately. I do not exercise too much up until I get too tired. To live a life of moderation is my secret in life. I have learned to know my upcoming auras when I know Im too tired exercising. I have done balley for 17 years and it has done me very well in recognizing auras because it has helped me to cleanse my body from all toxins ... travelling through my body.
More so, allow to comment to you exercise. It might be too harsh for your physical system...

Friends, I think IT DEPENDS ON YOU! I stayed in a hospital for 7 days after I was diagnosed with a cyst on my brain and had a grand Mal. On 8th day I couldn't help but did some heavy weight training (as i used to do earlier), nothing happened. And remember, I was having a degenerating cyst on my brain. I've been doing light and heavy exercise ever since, and never had a seizure. Everyone has a different body, but it's us who decide to push it beyond limits. never do that. My Yoga has definitely helped me a lot. Especially the Pranayam (breathing exercise) part. I never try to overdo any exercise. I always stop when I see the things get out of control. Now, what I suggest is that When you are doing exercise and feel as if you are about to have a seizure, just stop. Do some light work. Continue some other time when you're feeling good. Sleep a lot.
