How is everyone doing??

Just sitting here in my ROcking for Epilepsy t shirt tongue
Wanted to check in and see how everybody is doing.  Hope you all are doing well.  Seizure free, healthy and happy.  Hopefully I can get into a chat session soon.  When are they held?? Take care Tracy


 

Yes I love my t-shirt and thanks again for it!! Weather is grossly humid today. But I have the a.c. on. I have no tolerence for that weather anymore since the big seizure last summer. I did fall asleep the other night. I was sitting in the room waiting for people and I fell asleep. :) Hopefully I will be able to catch up with you guys soon. I have to go study, I have my national certification for Phlebotomy tomorrow morning. HUGS Tracy


 

Hi Tracy,

I'm still here at my puter, feeling pretty good but freezing my butt off with the A/C turned way up to cool off the bed rooms.

It's 98 degrees out at 12:20am


Diagnosed with epilepsy and ulcerative colitis in 1979,
Been on meds ever since.
 
275mg-dilantin/day
120mg-pheonobarb/day
3,000mg-Mesasol/day
20mg-Celexa/day

Tracy, Hope the Phlebotomy cert goes well for you!! A good blood draw is a great thing!!

Yes, we are running the AC here as well. HOT spell and very humid.....
Yuck, I am not fan of the summer anymore!! I just can't stand the heat, and with this humidity, I want to pull my hair out... I am glad to hear that you guys are doing well. Normal stuff going on. I am getting ready to go for my certification. I hope it goes well. THis is the last cert and I am so happy it is all over. Now I can go back to working full time this summer and gearing up for Nursing school in September. Thank for the updates guys.. how are the kids doing? WEll I hope. TTYS Tracy :)

This is for everyone :)
How are ya'll doing?
The weather is really muggy by me here on Long Island. Do any of you have problems with the 4th of July and fireworks triggering anything. Just didn't know if it could visually set a sz off.
Hope you are good what is new?


 

My son used to have a lot of problems with watching them. He felt really weird and sometimes had auras with it....

He has not had that in a couple of years. I sometimes get a migraine from them, though...Hope you have a great 4th and have NO trouble with the fire works....

Ginny
Thanks alot Ginny. I hope it goes well. I do love the 4th. I kind of figured this could trigger sz. You have a safe and fun 4th also! Tracy

Hello to the newer members, I hope you are all feeling well and are seizure free.

I hope everyone had a nice 4th of July. Mine was calm and nice. So no seizures over the weekend. Though one night this week I woke up with a bitten sore tongue. SO I am not sure what happened if it was just a simple nightime bite or what. Oh gee. I get nervous abou this stuff you know.

Have a good night everyonw and take care, Tracy


 

Hey Tracy,
           Sorry about the tongue bite!! It is hard trying to figure it all out, i am sure!! Did you feel weird or anything when you woke up? Hoping it was just a nasty bite. (NO fun)
    
            We had a nice 4th here. Having daily headaches again and not having a fun time with that.....oh well.
 
 
           Hope your summer is going well.

HI Ginny
I don't remember that day feeling particularly strange. I didn't have a bad headache or anything. Ahh I just get scared. The one year anniversary of that bad TC is coming up and I am stressed over some things so I get worried easily. But you all know that :)

Glad to hear your 4th was nice. Sorry to hear about your headaches. They are such a pain. Thanks for the reply and hope the kids are doing well. Tracy
