Seizure Or Normal Fainting Posted: 03-14-07 14:16pm
Hey, Im new here
I haver been having These "episodes" for
about a year now and My mum didint find
out about these since christmas day when i
had one infront of her, I had told her
before but she didnt reely notice or care
i dont know.
Anyway what happenes when im having them
is,
1. I normally kind of stretch and then my
breathing all changes.
2. ill feel as if i stiffen up.
3. Loose Concinoues
4. be on the floor
I dont shake or anything or jerk. But when
reading about you can see pages of
epilepsy where there Just fall to the
floor, and normal fainting.
Anyway i have been to see the nuero and
hes getting me an EEg done but he said if
thats comesback clear he wont want to see
me again.
Luke P.s By the way Im 14 if that helps

Luke, this is something you definately
need to discuss with your mother or other
adult. It may be a form of epilepsy.
Just because an EEG is normal doesn't mean
you are not having seizures. I have had
them for 5 years, have had several EEGs
and they have all been normal. Please I
urge you again to talk to someone about
this it is very important. You may need
to see a different doctor if this one will
not listen. And please try not to be too
hard on your mom if she seems distracted
about it. It may be that she doesn't want
something to be wrong with you and doesn't
want to think there could be. She may
also see it as a way for you to be getting
attention. I've had 2 teenage boys
myself so that's coming from a mother with
love and experience.
Good luck, Clovis

Hey my mother does know now,
Yeah the doctor told me If this First EEG
comes back normal he dosent want to see me
again.
He said it could be hormonal but it hough
would it last a year +
Anyway i've read sometimes i get like
realy strong pins and needles in my hands
or legs Just wondering if that could have
anything to do with it?

The pins and needles feeling is something
I'm not familair with,but something you
should definately tell your doctor about.
It might help to write down any time you
have those or any odd feelings and what
time of day what you were doing etc. That
way you can remeber everything and make
sure your doc. knows all your symptoms so
he can help you get a proper diagnosis.
Good luck, Clovis
(P.S. glad your mom is up to speed on
what's going on. )
