Partial Seizures

Sun, 01/08/2017 - 10:59
I am 21 and just got dx with partial seizures. I have probably been having them a long time (different types) but found out because the ones I'm having now cause my eyes to roll in my head and I get a funny feeling in my head that I initially thought was dizziness. I went on lamictal but it isn't working and is messing with my autism so I am switching to something else. I do also get the ones with the sweating/chills, the ones where you smell things, sudden anger or giddiness, etc.
