Seizure after surgery..............

Thu, 10/19/2006 - 08:32
Good morning, I had my surgery on August 28, 2006. Basically almost 2 months ago. Last night, I had my first seizure since the operation. I was wondering how many of you all experienced this? Also, does this mean that my seizures are back and that the operation wasn't a success? Or did I have this because my brain is still healing? To say I'm upset about this seizure is putting it mildly!!!! Anyway, hope to hear from you soon. Keri

I know this is a hard thing to take. For I have been through it several times. But they say after surgery it can take up to a whole year for the healing process. SO having some seizures is not rare. Just make sure your doctor knows. take care Lisa http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/epilepsyapproach/
