Can exercise induce seizures?
Sun, 11/16/2008 - 07:00All the doctors disagree with me because of the research out there but I gave up running last June because I had a seizure while running. I suddenly collapsed, right before I was going to cross a busy street.
The doctors argue that aerobic exercise is especially good for epileptics because it normally relieves stress and depression. I agree with this but I want to be safe when getting back into it again. Once I had a small seizure on a bicycle as well.
What does everyone else think? Have you had similar experiences?

How often do you get them without the meds? Did you just stop stuff like running? I ask as I am on that journey myself.
