one more question, frequency of seizures

Wed, 09/05/2007 - 21:04
I can go weeks without having a seizure. I might have a few, sometimes five or more in a week though that's rare. I'm wondering if other people had more seizures in a week or can go a long time without one, either on medications or not.

Mine come weeks apart, but lately, when they do, they have been huge! And thats ON medications, I'm careful to not take meds.

Shouldn't you take some type of medication? Maybe you need to switch meds. Can you get out and take walks every day? Just get away from the computer so E won't consume your every thought? I've been there which is why I know it helps to just get away for a while from it all. Sorry you're going through this. Karolina

Doh! (And that's a real one, look at my avatar) YES I DO take my meds, I mis-spoke in the above post. I'm very careful NOT to miss my meds, I have them divided into am/pm- Mon-Fri. Until my Neuro prescribes something different, I follow last order given.
