My husband has sz. from a car accident in 1977

Hello. My husband had his first sz almost 5 years ago. He was in the hospital for 7 days. He does not remember clearly what happened two wks before and DAYS afterwards. He is on depekote 1250 mg a day. The doctors found that it was from an accident he had in 1977. He had hit his forehead on the steering wheel of his car and now has scar tissue. They said they could operate to remove this but it would only cause more scar tissue etc. He was clear up until November of 2009. He had another. I was not there for the first one but was for the last one. It was the middle of the night. Thank God I am a first responder at work as I did not panic. I just did what I had to do. Not that I wasen't freaked out because I surely was. I have been reading alot of the discussions on here and feel so much better that there are others out there that are going through the same thing we are. Some of those things are him not believing he has had a sz., feeling spacey, or as one guy said like he's walking through sand. Having docs that don't listen. Also he is very unsteady most of the time. He will stumble or wobble. Sunday he fell down some stairs and said it was because he was looking at pictures on the wall but I'm not sure if he's being totally honest. I have been reading alot of things that I find here to him and I think he is finally realizing that we are not kidding with him about this. He hasent believed that he ever had one. I even told him one time that I was going to tape him if it ever happened again. We laughed when I said it but then he said maybe thats a good idea. I really feel for him that he has the short term memory loss. This is a guy thats always been at the top of his game and it kills me that this frustrates him so bad. I think my question is (now that i have all of the other things off my chest) He said he has these times when he feels like he's kind of not there and doesn't feel like he's doing anything right. And he really can't do much. This can last anywhere from a couple of minutes to all day. We call them "Bad Days". The doc didn't really understand when he was trying to explain so he ordered a 24hr eeg which of course came up normal. Does anyone else experience this? I've been handling things pretty well but am at the end of my rope for answers. If anyone out there has these same feelings that he does or has family members that do please contact us. thank you all in advance and I am SO glad I stumbled on this sight, it has already helped us out even though this is the first time I am posting.
