The feelings after a seizure.
Sun, 01/23/2005 - 10:41Topic: Family & Friends
Hi. I wonder if anyone can relate to how I'm feeling. 2 nights ago I had a bad seizure in my sleep. Almost all of my seizures are nocturnal. If I have them for a few nights straight I will start to have them while awake. Well the next day I just layed down. When ever I got up I got a strange feeling. Just like before I do have a seizure. So of course this is terrifying. I'm sure if anyone has felt like this that you can understand. Does this happen to anyone else??? Here is one more question. It's 2 days later and nothing tastes right. Could this be a result of biting my tounge?? Today has been a hard day. Nothing feels right. Just to hear that I am not crazy would help so much. I've stated before that I don't know anyone else who suffers seizures.Thank you.Stacey.

Please do not feel alone. I know exactly what you are talking about. It's so hard to explain the feeling to someone that has never had them before but I do. I had one 2 days ago in my sleep and today I still feel alittle weird. Almost like I'm in a dream. It's like reality has not come back yet. My tongue is still sore and my taste is not the same. I am hoping this goes away soon. But, again, do not feel abnormal.... I'm right there with you, and understand fully!!!

I have been diagnosed with epilepsy suffering with complex partial seizures however recently these have progressed into the full blown seizure which they are looking into (in other words more meds!) After they occur I just want to sleep and after my recent one this was the case, woke up the next day with bitten tongue and aching muscles. However it is now 4 days after my last and I just feel like I am not all there, drunk almost?!! Is this normal, will this subside in a few days or should I be ringing a doctor?!
You are correct about all

You are correct about all these questions but I don't know about the strange feeling, that's where I am literally every waking moment
