Iam 17 And I Have Seizures Posted: 10-22-05 20:29pm
Iam 17 yrs old when my mother was pregant
with me I was a month over due.The doctor
just didnt want to deliver me.He said he
had better things to do.But anyways
because he wouldnt deliver me when he
should had, I have seizures now.I had
seizures for the 3 days of my knew
life.The doctors didnt put me on any
medication because they thought I didnt
need any.I didnt have another seizure
intill I was 10 yrs old I had a grand mal
seizure when I was sleeping.The agel10
though 12 I had 5 grand mal seizures.I
would have them when I was sleeping.It was
very scarey for me I would wake up in
amublance.And I would had bitten my
tongue.My doctor had put me on keppra for
my grand mal seizures and it works ever
since I been on keppra I havent had a
grand mal seizure.I stop having seizures
for three years.When I turn 15 I was with
my mom in the car I remeber telling my mom
I hear voices and then I had a seizure.The
seizures I have know are partcual
seizures.If anyone has questions or just
need someone to talk to about epilespy
just let me know you are not alone.It is
hard for me I cant drive or work.I use to
play soccer and I cant play soccer no
more.But hopefully I will be able to drive
work and play the sport I love.The
medication iam on know is keppra and
gabapentin.I have been on gabapentin for 4
months know and I dont care for it much.

Hi lilangel,
how are your head-aches doing?
Do you still get them all the time?
Have you tried drinking litres-and-litres
of water every day?
I used to have serious head-aches as
well.
Since I changed my diet they're all but
gone.
Yoghurt, bananas, ginger tea and museli
share first position.
Peaches, oranges and pineapples come in a
close second.
While copious amounts of fresh milk,
cheese and nuts share third.
B.T.W., why don't you play soccor
anymore?
All you need is a ball and a wall?
Who knows, maybe you're the next
"maradeena"?
