On the day of the January blizzard in New York City. , I had a seizure.
I can't "measure the degree".
My neurologist increased the dosage and frequency of my seizure meds, and also put me on other meds to hopefully help calm me down, and calm my stuttering, which has been out of control lately.
I had a discussion with my neurologist in his office, during which we discussed the seizure, and which I clearly told him. "Please don't tell my father. I dont want to worry him".
My neurologist told me that he can't tell my father, unless I say so, or I'm incapacitated.
Shortly after the episode, I spoke to my Dad on the phone.
Unwise Mitch, who as many who know me on this forum, does things I shouldn't.
When my Dad asked me "How do you feel"?
I was like. "I had a seizure on the day of the blizzard".
I could hear the tone of complete worry, in my Dad's voice.
My RL friends told me that they know I didn't tell my Dad for the purpose of worrying him.
I personally can't wait to get the anti anxiety meds, and the extra doses of seizure meds.
Hopefully, that will finally "fix the problem", as my neurologist says.
While I thankfully have not had any additional seizures since the day of the blizzard, I don't feel right physically.
This, after being officially told right after the 1st of the year that I have epilepsy.
After having a terrible 2017, 2018 has started.. with difficulty,
I feel like my memory has been affected since my last two seizure episodes.
Hopefully, this is a rough patch, and things will get better soon.
