I"ve fallen and I can't get up

Hi delphinium, Thanks so much for posting. While we cannot always predict when we are about to fall, there are some precautions you can take to reduce your chance of falling.Learn how to prevent falls and minimize injuries whether the risk of falling comes from gait/balance disorders or seizure side effects, here: https://www.epilepsy.com/learn/seizure-first-aid-and-safety/staying-safe/fall-safelyThere are many different devices that can help detect seizures and notify someone to help respond.

Lol I know what you mean about wanting aesthetically pleasing jewelry. Sometimes they'll tell you a medical alert something looks stylish when it really doesn't. It's all a matter of opinion though. I've learned to see the beauty in the more "medical" looking ones, even though I haven't used 1 myself yet. IDK if you've already seen this but there's a site called elegant medical alert. Some if there products come in more of a variety. It's up to you though, don't do anything you don't feel comfortable with. Does your back hurt after a seizure?
