Spots in Vision

Anyone?

Hi. Has anyone ever see a black spot(looks like floater) moving around one eye be it whether it's a sign of seizure abt to happen or it just floats around back & forth in only 1 eye?I'm worried abt this as I often experience it. Currently, gastric seems to come along with the floaters.

You mentioned you had surgery, did you have brain surgery? I had a RTL in 2002 and have been seizure free since. where did you have your surgery? mine was at the University of Va. I had complex partial seizures, but haven't had one since the surgery. If you want e-mail me at cindyholt2005@yahoo.com

Believer- I also had a RTL performed in 2002- August 21 as a matter of fact. Technically, I have been sz free since surgery (except for the undx'd funny things that have been going on for the last few months). I did have sp's & cp's with one tc secondarily generalized... How has your recovery been? Have you noticed any cognitive changes (particularly with memory or thinking/processing changes??) email me directly at vodpop@yahoo.com
