Im not sure about anyone else...
But I have good days and bad days... and really bad days. If I went to a 3-D movie on a bad day I probably would start to not feel good, But If I went on a good day then I would be okay!
Just depends on how you feel I guess!!!

I will not see any movies in 3-D because of type of seizures I have Generalized Tonic Clonic /absent.
Background
Normal EEG -every 3 months
10-15 -8-15 sec absent second daily
2-Tonic Clonic - when I wake up- per month
Things that have cause me to have Tonic Clonic when I am not in my bed .. a very long firework show, concert that had this lazer and light... and one night I stay up all night at a lock inn ( I was a youth pastor). I have try playing my son xbox games or watching them..and I get a headach..and have to laydown.. so, I am not about to try a 3D movie and put my life at risk!
