Hello please help me on my condition . I am jessica 23 year old and married. I got seizures twice in my entire life one at 19 years old and another recently 4 months back,but both were appeared in period time and also i was too weak both times because 1st time i was suffering from malaria fever and 2nd time i was on sever dieting . At first time i had consulted doctor (neuro physician) and he had wrote diolex 500mg for 3 years ,but unfortunetly i have PCOD problem too and for that i have been using yamini is ever since i knew i had this problem .So due to that problem i had to stop the medication for seizures after 2 years from the day i had started . Unfortunately again i had mate with seizures and i had to start medication again ,but new drug levipil1000 mg was replaced old one . My husband has decided give divorce for my health condition .So this is my life and death issue please kindly tell me is this serious seizure or normal one.

I read your post amd I understand that you have had 2 seizures that you know of in the time period you posted. Do you know of the 40+ different types of seizures?? What some people don't realize is that they could have had several different types seizures and not know it. As for being on a medication and stopping it because of another medication Did you contact your neuro and discuss that issue with him. Or did you even tell him about all your other medications you take which would also include over the counter neds too? If not why didn't you? I have been takinf meds for epilepsy and my PCP knew what they were so he prescribed meds that wouldn't counter them. I too have COPD and both docs always check medications to make sure none of the ones I need daily counter others. I have my PCP not prescribing a medication because it will counter a medication for my Afib. So all of my doctors know all of the medications I take. There are several meds for COPD and many for epilepsy so they could look at other medications and prescribe meds that wouldn't counter others you use. Any seizure is serious since you have no idea which type of epilepsy you have. Just because you have had 2 seizures does not mean you will not have others. I had a grasnd mal seizure at school. That was the first seizure I knew of. I had been written up for day dreaming in class for about 2 years. I also has some wierd feelings in my right hand and said nothing about them. Well those day dreams wer actually absence seizures (petite nal) and those wierd feeling in my hand were focal seizures. I was diagnosed with Grand mal, Petite mal and Focal motor epilepsy. So the first seizure was the worst kind of seizure. The day dreams where the slightest kind of seizure. Oh and focal seizures can ba several different kinds of seizures one of which can and has gone convulsive. Focal seizures start in one area of the brian in they generalize they cover the entire brain which means a convulsion where I did not lose conciousness I saw, heard and knew what was happening. So until you know all the different types of seizures you have then it can be serious
