, that is good that you can tell that they are coming. I now have very little ones that just make my brain confuse words for a few seconds, thanks to new medicine

Mine started after having a Benign brain tumor removed 12 years ago I was in my mid-40s and the seizure started because of them being in my head. First I had petite, then grand mals within a week or so after surgery. I should’ve been put on seizure medicine as a precaution after surgery but I wasn’t different doctors have different philosophies

It took a long time to get over at grand mal for my recovery I haven’t really met anyone else who’s had the same issue as me 10 years after this happened I had another one pretty sure it was stress related. Now three years later I have these just little tiny mini ones that really just give me a little brain confusions for seconds I did a seizure study a couple months ago and that’s sort of what we found out at least now I recognize when it happens I actually didn’t realize those were seizures I just thought maybe it had something to do with getting older but a medicine without it and now like I said it’s helped
