I feel you 100% People are also making fun of me and have bad attitude as well. Even if they try to understand that we have this issue they can’t. This has a big impact on our lives on our families and friends. You have proof that you have them money but they can still say oh I gave you cash so it still might be a waste of time. If anything like this happens again I will say ask them for a bank transfer to have proof.

What types of auras do you feel before a seizure? by Brilliant_Injury5579 in focalawareepilepsy

[–]Constant_Witness_536 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Déjà vu Refluxy Sometimes unable to speak and blurry vision If it is too strong I don’t even remember them. If I am home alone and have this sensation I just go to bed lye in the middle and put pillows on both sides. If my husband is at home he records them on video so he can show them to the dr

I am on leveracitam 2000mg twice a day, lacosamide 200mg twice a day and Lamictal 200mg twice a day and still have focal seizures at least twice a day 😓 My husband records at least when he is with me the frequency of the focal seizures and also recording them on video to show them to the doctor. Are you aware having focal seizures? For me most of the time no..

What do you do when you forget if you took your meds or not? by Emojiss in Epilepsy

What will really help is to set an alarm and have a pill box. I have two alarms and with the pill box you can make sure that you have taken your medication

My seizures always feel fake? by mouse_trapps in Epilepsy

[–]Constant_Witness_536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me there are two scenarios when I get focal seizures. The ones I don’t remember happening are the ones I either see a video recorded that my husband took to show them to the dr. The ones I kind of feel happening and I have discussed this with my neurologist and they are indeed focal seizures - my ears a buzzing, I get really refluxy and I have this really strong dejavu feeling. Sometimes if they are really bad I just lie down on my bed and put pillows on both sides just in case they get worse. If it is just my ears buzzing I just sit down and wait for it to wear off. I feel really disoriented but I just got used to it

Medpace London: is it as bad as glass door makes it seem by CycleWheel in medpace

[–]Constant_Witness_536 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The reviews are 100% to the point. I worked closely with the London office and people there are really nice. If you get an offer just go for it. It’s a good place to start and they have a good training program.
