Wednesday evening I had a few seizures. Somewhere between 5 and 11 pm. The last clear memory I have is around 4pm when I was making dinner. I do not recall an aura but then I do not recall finishing cooking, eating, doing dishes, sending the roommate off to work either.
Somehow I managed to fall between the sofa and the coffee table â I hit my head on the coffee table, kind of tore a bit of scalp. It only required 5 suture. My ex/roommate found me on the floor seizing thus called 911 and I got to spent the night and most of thursday in hospital.
I had at least 5 grandmal (fall on the floor type fits), 1 at home (at least), 1 took place in the ambulance, the other 3 took place at hospital. Mixed in there are âmanyâ absence seizures that the nurses/doctors reported on.
They filled me full of antiseizure drugs. Kept me for observation, and I have been informed that my drivers license will be pulled (again, Iâve done this before) thus I have at least 6 months without driving to look forward too â if I can convince a doctor Iâm no longer having seizures then.
They say I have a slight concussion too⦠Which that may account for the nausea and dizziness a little coupled with the drugs which act much like a chemical lobotomy halve of my mind has steped back (to conneticuit I think). My eyes are unfocused a bit - even with my reading glasses on I cant make it out.
I spend Thursday in a doped up haze, mixed with a bit of pain and tiredness. I have slept maybe 22 of the past 24 hours. I think Iâll spending the week end feeling like crap too.
I bruised/strained an ankle (it looks far worse than it feels) and of course a head wound tends to gush blood. I guess the blood was partly coagulated whne my roommate arrived aarrived, which means I was on the floor for a couple of hours.
Blood soaked the rug (so much for scotch-guard repelling stains), got some splatters on the couch⦠Iâm sure it looked real bad, judging from the rug.
Iâm not expecting to be able to get back on all the pms in my folder⦠Not that I donât care, Iâm just hald out of it right now.
Maybe mondya Iâll reply.
