seizure/dizzy turns... help!!

by Swophie, Feb 28, 2008 02:28PM
i am 15 and a vegetarian and i seem to spontaniously suffer from deja vu type symtoms. its not a normal deja vu though as i lose control of my body (sometimes falling over) and i use all my strenth to remain breathing. it is like an extreme deja vu . i can hear people around me but cannot respond to them in the usual manner.. i usually end up grunting. i feel like i am reliving a dream i had previously exactly how i saw it but i dont remember dreaming it until i am living it. once these seizures are over i cannot remember the time during them.
i went to the doctor and got head tests and they couldnt find anything. i am worried if i go back to the doctors i might not be able to drive!

please help!

hi,were EEG and MRI were done?.Are you presently on some medications?.Your symptoms suggest absence seizure but this has to be corroborated by EEG findings.Were any blood tests were undertaken?

ive just though... if it helps

my mother suffers from migraines ... very bad ones. i looked up apsence seizures and the tablets reccomended my mum was reccomended to take for her migraines-so it made me remember.

also my brother is dispracsic*sp and deislecsic*sp (i can spell them when i dont need to!)
maybe there is a connection between all these 3 things?!

hi,in that case please consult Neuropsychiatrist,as he will be the best person to evaluate your case as it seems you don't have any organic disorder.This is just an opinion.Bye and take care!
