My goodness, I'm so glad you are okay... you must have been scared to wake up in the hospital like that. I hope things get better for you. *hugs* My sister-in-law has epilepsy, and she lives a very normal life, if that helps any. I hope the medications do their tricks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-810894 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 17:41:21 +0000 Inge 810894@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so sorry to hear you are going through this, Sona. You've really had a very tough year-(((<br /> Please take extra good care of yourself and try to rest as much as possible. I'm holding thumbs that you've found some good arrangements for the driving issue and will be sending lots of positive thoughts your way. Hang in there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-810563 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 04:49:30 +0000 Anonymous 810563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona, I just found this and will pray that this condition and your problems because of it get sorted soon. Please take care of yourself and take each day as it comes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-809280 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 06:26:38 +0000 ManidipaM 809280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Take it easy (well, try!) and take care, Sona. I know you already know this, but the easiest way to drop *anyone's* seizure threshold is to tire them out or stress them out, of course. It isn't easy, I can imagine, with the logistical arrangements and the tests and experiments in medicines (some of those seizure meds take getting used to!). But I do like Texstyle's approach --- sometimes you just have to decide to give yourself a break, for everyone's benefit including your own. The world will just have to whirl along with a little less organization from you :-)</p> <p>Get well soon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-809242 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 04:44:29 +0000 Suz 809242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona - still feeling concerned on your behalf. I am glad you have a partial answer at least, and hope the driving arrangements will work out for your daughter's school. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-809127 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 00:56:06 +0000 rachylou 809127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona, ohmigosh! Big HUG!</p> <p>That happened to my aunt, while driving. Nobody got hurt, but scary! She's ok now and drives again, if that's any encouragement.</p> <p>You've got my prayers and positive thoughts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-809095 Sat, 05 Jan 2013 00:13:13 +0000 DonnaF 809095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona, I just saw this thread. I'm relieved you didn't get a concussion on top of the seizure (small gift, right?) and hope you can get the logistical nightmare sorted out by the time school resumes. 2012 was such a difficult health year for you; I truly hope that 2013 is better. {{{{Hugs}}}} </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-808722 Fri, 04 Jan 2013 17:22:31 +0000 texstyle 808722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just read this post so I'm sorry it is belated but I have said a prayer for you. As everyone said, please take care of yourself, try to relax and keep positive thoughts. I read a tip a while back that seemed so simple that I didn't think it could work but it does help me. It said that whenever you start worrying about something, to mentally give yourself permission not to worry about it right now and to instead agree with yourself that you will worry about it later instead. You can even set up a time to "worry" if that's what you feel you need to do, but for me I simply agree that I am just not going to worry at the present time about this particular thing (whatever it is). </p> <p>I know it sounds silly but somtimes I also silently recite a little "don't worry" song to myself like "Don't Worry, Be Happy." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-807968 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 20:34:57 +0000 Transcona Shannon 807968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the update Sona. I honestly don't know what to say except I am sending all sorts of hugs and prayers to you. This must be scary and frustrating. You and your family will take care of the logistics, just make sure you take good care of yourself.</p> <p>xoxo<br /> Shannon </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-807573 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 12:32:27 +0000 missvee 807573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm, this wasn't the result you were hoping for, but at least you are getting some answers and you will be able to make some plans. Deb has some good suggestions. You are in my thoughts - I'd like to give you a big hug! Please try to get lots of rest, and don't be afraid to ask your friends and family for help. You are such a kind and giving person - please let others give to you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-807414 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 03:49:47 +0000 deb 807414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona, when I first had my seizures, my work found someone that lived close to me. She picked up me and the kids, we dropped them off at day care, then drove to work. She also took me home and someone else picked up the kids for me. I had to do this for a year. I could not have done it without my work placve and this wonderful lady they found for me. Does your place of business have a message board to post ride sharing info? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-807246 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 00:48:37 +0000 pil 807246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona, I hope there are no more bumps in the road as far as your health is concerned. It might be difficult, but please don't hesitate to ask your friends for help with your daughter's transportation. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-807171 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 23:54:23 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 807171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona, I have been following the thread and hoping for the best for you. Please take care and try not to worry about non-essentials. There is always a work around for the logistics. Your health is what truly matters.</p> <p>(((hugs))) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-807087 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 22:26:24 +0000 Sona 807087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brief update: my EEG was abnormal.This means that although by definition I don't have epilepsy ( that needs 2 or more seizures) I need to be on seizure meds for a minimum of 2 years. 3 months driving restrictions- this is the biggest immediate issue- my hubby travels a lot for work and our DD goes to school outside the district so busing is not an option. I normally drop her off and he picks her up. We are trying to arrange a cab service of sorts. I am feeling tired and worn out since the episode so am trying to<br /> take it easy. Hope to plan an outfit for tomorrow- back to work.Your prayers and wishes mean a great deal.Merci mes amis. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-806942 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 20:45:12 +0000 Inge 806942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a frightening experience, Sona-(((<br /> How are you feeling now? Have you heard back from the doctor yet?</p> <p>I am sending lots of positive vibes your way. Hang in there beautiful lady! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers/page/2#post-806554 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 05:39:37 +0000 Debora 806554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona, I am just seeing this now and want you to know that you are in my thoughts.

I know it's been a challenging year health wise and I am believing for a 2013 of good health and much blessing for you and your family. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers#post-805811 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 17:46:36 +0000 Angie 805811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How are you feeling today, Sona? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers#post-805764 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 16:26:26 +0000 missvee 805764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just saw this thread and I'm so, so sorry to hear about this episode. You must have been scared out of your wits. I'm sure you are in good hands medically, and that you'll get a diagnosis soon. Try to stay positive - I know that's not easy - you've been sorely tested lately. My Rx is love and laughter - play some silly games with your DD, snuggle up on the sofa and watch some funny movies. Here's to better health in 2013! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers#post-805634 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 08:02:09 +0000 Ornella 805634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sona, you have an abundance of healing and positive thoughts coming from me too.

I am so sorry this happened to you. I hope this was a result of the medication you are taking and nothing more serious. My thoughts are with you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers#post-805178 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 10:03:55 +0000 ManidipaM 805178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh noes, Sona! That must have been terrifying for both you and your family.</p> <p>Really, really hoping it turns out to be one of those one-off things, the seizure that's a combination of odd circumstances never to be repeated. You know that's the likeliest scenario, probably, with no medical history until now.</p> <p>(I hear you about the frustration of not driving. I've dealt with an undiagnosed could-be-seizure problem for years, and while no one's able to come up with a firm diagnosis as tests keep coming back fine or ambiguous, the one thing every doctor is clear on --- and quite rightly --- is that I ought to save myself and the general public from having an episode behind the wheel. I'm still waiting to learn and get a licence, for which I need to be clear for 5 years --- almost got there once!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers#post-805096 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 03:19:05 +0000 MsMary 805096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sending all my very best love and support, Sona! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers#post-805048 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 02:05:19 +0000 Isis 805048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will be thinking of you, Sona! Hang in there until you know what is what. No sense worrying until you have the facts. I am hopeful this is a one-time thing, and glad you did not hurt yourself too badly in your fall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-need-prayers#post-804946 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 22:39:14 +0000 Laurinda 804946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sending cyber hugs and warm thoughts.

Positive thinking is always better both for mind and body.</p> <p>I am not religious so can't really pray but I do wish you the best of luck with this and hope your doctors can find a cause and a solution. </p>
