I had 5 grand mal seizures within 2 hours of each other in february of 2009. They were not sure if it was meningitis or epilepsy but the doctors said it had to be considered and treated as epilepsy due to having multiple seizures. I was eventually placed on Zonegran(200mg) daily and only took the medicine for about 4 months. I stopped cold turkey after that and havent taken it since. Do you think i actually have epilepsy and can anything still happen after being off of it for 4 years now? I have even had blood tests recently, considering i havent told my doctor i stopped taking the medicine, and they still say my levels are normal even though i am not taking the medicine...how can that be?
I am going to be 23 soon, 185lbs, had multiple concussions(1 severe) the last being 3 years prior to the seizures, i have asthma, and have never had any other serious diseases infections or trauma, allergic to penicillin
When i was found having the seizures i was hitting my head on a sharp corner of my headboard. My head is still EXTREMELY sensitive where my severe concussion was in 2006 and my head is slightly recessed there. Is it possible i could have just hit that spot while i was sleeping and it caused the seizure?
