Feelings after having a seizure
Tue, 03/17/2009 - 00:19We have a son who is 20 and non-verbal, he was seizure free for several years and then the medication stopped working, we have been working our way through medications trying to find the one that works best for him.
During this process we are having seizures more often. As he is mentally at about a 2 years age level, we are concerned about what he is feeling after he has a seizure. Having some insight to this would be very helpful to us as to how to care for him for the next several hours while he is recovering. We have found that he sleeps pretty sound for about 5 or 6 hours after a big seizure, does not want much to eat or drink and the following day he is wired for the most part, very anxious and full of energy.
We know everyone is different but if we can just get some ideas as to what he might be feeling we can try and put two and two together at our end...
Thanks so much for your information, sincerely...Kim and Keith
