Will i ever know???

Post a new topicby MyKidzRKute on Fri Jul 24, 2009 9:21 pm

I started having seizures 2 months ago......my mother is epileptic so it was a bit shocking that it started however i wasn't completely surprised.....Any how....before i have a seizure my husband tells me that i tell him i am about to have one but i don't recall this activity....having a seizure wipes out a good days worth of my memory......this past weekend i had 6 and although they were all classified grandmal i was aware they were going to happen and concious during all 6 of them...not all to graceful but talking, walking....and barfing all the same....He said before each one i said to him i'm going to seize and then i would go down....i don't remember this which scares me because he travels for his job and my 5 and 7 year old daughters have to be responsible for the 911 call if he is gone and i seize....o...also, i'm pregnant, thanks to my Keppra, to make matters more interesting. Now i'm a lab tech so if i seize at work no biggie, i'm already there they know who to get ahold of and my kids are already in someone elses care during these times of the day but he is getting ready to head out for a 5 month stint for his job i'm soooo worried that i'll seize without warning....do you think i'll become more aware of the warning signs as my seizures increase...if they do increase???
