Just Found Out..
Posted: 09-19-04 17:10pm

Hi...Im not to the ehealthforum...I have posted a few things in the pregnancy forums but thats about it. But about a month ago, I had a gran-mall seizure. It was totally unexpected. Im 16 years old and I had 2 seizures when I was a baby but they blamed it on alergic reaction. I went to the er and they did a whole bunch of tests and found out that when had happened was in fact a seizure. They did a catscan and found a ring on a part of my brain and so I took an mri. It turns out that I have a form of epilepsy. They said that the mri showed signs that I have been having mild seizures for awhile, but were not sure how long. They put me on a med. Called keppra. It makes me super tired and weak. Ive been on the full dose for about a week now. I had to fill out some papers for school and it was so weird to put that I have some kind of medical condition on it. For the beginning of school, they wouldnt let me go anywhere by myself and that got really annoying. Im not as scared anymore but its been kind of hard for me to deal with. I dont know I guess I just wanted to know if theres anyone else out there going through the same thing?
