I experienced a grand mal seizure last night for the very first time

My sister had one during a massage, she was unaware breast cancer in remission had spread years later, she almost did not make it. Please have a thorough exam, this is nothing to play with and there are many healing modalities, natural ones as well...

Actually Grand Mal ( pronounced maul) is a type, it’s the most severe, the kind you see on tv with shaking foaming at the mouth etc, there are petite mal seizures, like my SIL has the includes lip smacking, tics , staring off into space etc. and there are other types too. They all come under the category of epilepsy.

Monday I am beginning a half-day hospital program

I'm getting better each moment

So glad to hear that, Friend.

Nobody who has never EXPERIENCED these neurological events
can EVER relate to how truly traumatic emotionally they
can be.

My prayers for your recovery--and for your COMFORT--are
coming your way.

My experience was to wake from a nap...and suddenly
have the room spinning and NOT STOPPING...AWFUL!
(This lasted for at least an hour and 1/2 to 2 hours...bad.)
I had to crawl up the hallway to a neighbor lady in my
apartment building because I couldn't open my eyes to use
the phone to even call 911. It was terrifying and I am still
concerned it could happen again. (Mine was a mild stroke
but I recovered almost 90% since April with no major lasting
effects.)

Always kind of chuckled at those TV ads where the lady
is on the floor and is calling "Help! I can't get up!"
Never thought it would be me...It can happen.

We are in a MAJOR geomagnetic storm the past couple of days
with over 5 very long-duration GAMMA RAY BURSTS, a large
coronal hole on our star, a CME in the northern hemisphere
of the sun and God only knows what else. These exotic
energies CAN AND DO CAUSE HEALTH EFFECTS but people are
not clued in to watch for them and--if you are SENSITIVE
to the energies--to take action.

Wish I could put up a smilie of my praying kitty but
my star fell off and I can't use them til next month.
But you know what I mean!

Blessings!

I have lost about 30% vision in my right eye from my
mild stroke. Your grand mal seizure may have been a type
of mile stroke...spaceweather related IMHO.

That's so sad.

Take good care.

I suggest you start on CBD right away. It can offer
SOME protection against the geomagnetic storms as well
as to restore function to damaged parts of the brain.
I have taken it since April this year and my progress
has been nothing short of miraculous. (Gained the use
of my right hand and can walk without a cane now.)

Such a great medicine. It should be free.

Don’t know if someone has said cause I just went to the end but are you stressed?
Do you have ptsd or depression?
Could be pseudo seizures. Or non epileptic seizures.
Conversation disorder. My wife has them from ptsd and multiple personalities

I knew we were similar people but now it's getting scary how similar!!

I keep plugging away at the computer. That and the phone are hard

Avoid aspartame like the plague. Most gum contains it and so do a lot of medications.

Tell your doctor you want prescription for Diazepam. If you have another big one that last more then 1-3 minutes. Then it has to be injected into rectum. That will save your life. Usually people die because it is a prolonged seizure activity more then a few minutes. Prayers still coming.

It was from falling down the stairs and hitting my head and neck through a wall

Many of us on GLP are on the same frequency, for sure.
With what is happening on this little planet right now,
it is difficult to say what is causing many SUDDEN
onsets of health issues. It is always best to have a
doc check out anything that is extreme, of course. This
sounded pretty scary, sweet Friend.

The person advising NOT driving is very wise. I decided to
give up my car last month and not drive indefinitely
--was one of the most difficult things I've had to do.
But I knew I would be tempted to drive if we had it home
--you can even put it into storage until you are sure you
are better. I'm really sad we both need to go through
these changes. But we'll just get tougher!

Beautiful. Love ya.

That's why I can't drink anymore. Withdrawals can get that bad after you had several and you keep drinking. Never had one yet and I don't ever want one.

I know it's not the op's circumstance, though. A lot of stuff can cause them.

Doesn't some energy drinks have taurine too?

MRI test STAT.

EEG as well.

You would also benefit from a fMRI to look for focus of brain irritability.

Seizures occur from a focus of brain irritability that intermittantly takes over and spreads.

For one thing, until you can control this long term driving as a no-no, because you will end up driving into a bunch of people on the sidewalk or cross over an hit oncoming traffic and kill a family.

So, do the right thing, no driving.
Sorry

prayers said for you

I know.

Good Morning!

Top O the morning to ya

Morning! HOw are you feeling, Friend?

I just posted this to another thread (the OP was "feeling
strange vibrations") and thought you would like to see it:
