pseudo seizures?

Wed, 12/31/2014 - 22:53

I was told that I has pseudo seizures, temporal lobe seizures, grand maul seizures and status eilepticus seizures. I've also had several days at a time, that I don't remember. People would tell me that I acted drunk or out of focus. I do know that they are all caused by overwhelming stress. I can't stop the overwhelming stress. I'm told that the medecation that I need to help me is also addictive. Every single Dr I talk to says something completely different from the other doctors I see. I have no one that can speak for me when I'm "out of it". So how can I deal with any of this. How can I get a straight answer?

I too have pseudo seizures and you best bet would be to tell your friends and family about the situation, including your symptoms, how you feel about the situation, and what might cause them to stay away from that kind of talk/conversation/or even situation. ~Sincerely, Lexi Ellis 14
