Hello, everyone, I am new to sharing my thoughts and feelings, so please bare with me. Today I am writing because of image of my wifes most recent seizure. She is currently on disability and has been having reoccuring seizures for 7 years. She is also on several anti-convulsants but continues to have break through seizures. Last night was different, I was watching T.V and she was coloring her favorite fuzzy posters sitting in the floor at the coffee table. Through out the day she had been complaining of double vision and feeling off balance. We talked it over and decided it must be the dialantin. She kept trying to tell me, No ,that thus is different,well I wish now i would have listened.
