Hi! I've had them since I was a child. I hit my head as a child several times. I had convulsions and throwing up at first. Then I started clumsiness. If I hit my elbow, knee,fingers and or stub my toes bam! Lights go out! I started to lose loss of temporary memory when I was a child. As I got older in my teens the pain inflictions started and then i'd passout from the pain.
Sex made me passout if gone to far. I would have to be put into a bathtub to help me come out of it. My first marriage on my honeymoon I had a gran mar seizure bit completely through my lip and had bowel movement. I can't give blood I will have a seizure. I had one on this girl. I told her that I need to lay down and I had deep roll away veins. she said i think we will take it out of your hand. As soon as she conflicted pain upon me I woke up with 5 people rubbing all over me. The Dr. said that I had a seizure and that I needed someone to pick me up. I had to call my mother to pick me up so embarrassed. He asked me why I didn't tell him about the seizures. I told him that if he looked on the history that he would find that I put down that I had seizures. Then he wanted to know why I'm not on medicine. I had procedures done. Sleep EEG they found no seizures only temporary blackouts. I was told by another doctor that I didn't need to be on medicine. Since I don't like pills I would forget to take them and then upon missing the doses it would cause me to have a seizure.
I was told that I would grow out of them too. I've had them all my life. Until I got married for the second time. Then they stopped and then all of a sudden they came back after 5yrs and then stopped again and started back again 4/6/13. I woke up out of a dead sleep with pain in my lower abdomen that doubled me over and got up went to the bathroom and set on toilet. Then I started the dizziness, spots & room spinning. I got up pulled up panties and tried to walk out of the bathroom to the couch. I only made it 1 step and I remember waking up, looking up at my husband with cold wash rag on my forehead. I was asking him where am I?
He told me what happened. He said that he heard alot of noise and then a big thud on the floor. I tried to grab a shelf it had alot of air fresheners on it and i pulled them off onto the floor when I was blacking out. I thought that I would get rid of the blackouts and seizures when i got older. This is not the case i'm in my late 40's now and just had one. So yes I would like to be heard. Has anyone else had these symptoms or similar?
Thanks for your response -very helpful
I wrote pain not panic but i guess while you're having a pain attack one could say ones levels of stress are higher
Yes, and they may be more likely to occur during a panic attack if the symptoms of the panic attack (eg. stress) are one of your triggers for a seizure.
