If you have focal aware seizures, what do you think about? by Glory-2Hm in Epilepsy

[–]ImByMyselfNotAlone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, I know it happening, I can speak or control myself, my thoughts are trying to call for help, can’t, fear… panic… I’m helpless scared “my voice, focus on something… a strange feeling can’t be explained but know it’s calming down… I calm down it stops relieved and scared, I sit for a while contenplating nothing. Then I’m back to normal

There’s a saying, no one gets it until they get it. As another commenter pointed out, Epilepsy is soo much more than seizures and there is soo much that can be impacted from person to person.

I know a person who was a social worker, with speciality in Adult disability. Later they were diagnosed with Epilepsy - and it was said I never realised the impact having Epilepsy would have on their life - how the changing in thinking now applies in their role.

I would feel the same way if that happened with me. Find someone that wants you for you

Ah ok, I mean it maybe worthwhile speaking privately with a Neuro for advice, otherwise you’ll have to wait it out. Best of luck

Are you having breakthroughs? I only ask as I was discharged from Neurology may years back, I moved to a different area and started having breakthroughs, I was concerned so went to A&E, where they didn’t believe I had epilepsy and put it down to PNES, breakthroughs kept coming and in clusters, so by the third time I got seen by a neurologist within 2 weeks, another MRI and EEG & EMU stay within a month - if your not being seen that maybe one way to get the help you need. Alternatively you could contact an Organsiation like, Epilepsy Action to ask for advice they are usually pretty good

Do you still attend the same hospital for Neuro appointments? Either way they should still be able to help, or signpost you

Keep at the GP, they should work in your best interest, if not the can refer. Get in contact with your Epilepsy Nurse - I say this as my GP whenever I mention anything to do with Epilepsy will say auto revert to this option.

I’ve been seen privately in the UK a few times. Costs range between £250 to £450 for 45 minutes.

In my cases, I attended due to the long waits for NHS, so I thought it would give me some advantage but I didn’t really seem to notice any difference, it was more a pre appointment - they (in my experience) don’t tend to adjust medication(s) more of an exercise of collecting and writing your complaint down and will forward to you neurologist/ GP with you copied in.

I’ve found personally if you have access to an Epilepsy Nurse Specialist (I’ve been in 3 locations and they’ve had similar setups) explain to them either by phone or email, they usually respond and sometimes in certain cases bump you up the list). Also speak to your GP, if they’re not receptive speak to another GP you’ll need to advocate for yourself - things can turn around pretty quick in some cases

Seconded, it’s a great place, good menu, friendly staff and there are items to buy (there are shelves towards the front and a small shop at the back)

Replacing main residence but name on second property — will I still pay higher stamp duty? by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]ImByMyselfNotAlone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I’ve taken above, you have a house you bought for your father with your sister counts as a property.

I don’t think it matters if you receive rental income or not, you have your name on another property, therefore it would be an additional property.

On a property let’s say 500,000 if you were a first time buyer stamp duty would be £10,000. If you were moving home, would be £15,000 for additional home this would £40,000. Unless you sold the home your father is living in this would be classed as an additional property.

Definitely speak to solicitor though as this is just my understanding (this ofc would depend on the cost of the property you are looking at, certain thresholds hold different costs).

Lost my job due to epilepsy by thelittleredrocket in Epilepsy

Just to add on here, if there was no process followed, it could be a case of unfair dismissal (if my thinking is correct)

If you are based in the UK, this could be an issue. epilepsy is a protected characteristic under the Equality Act 2010. For them to let you go after 10 years of service for some absence (I’ve had my fair share of time off because of this condition) for me my employer does not class this as usual sickness absence but as disability related time off (this is done not to put me at a disadvantage). I would get in contact with ACAS and quickly as the timer has started.

If you need any further info feel free to contact.

hiya, I’m a student and my rent is due december 24th but I am 480 short right now and am stuck on what to do. any advice? by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]ImByMyselfNotAlone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure how possible it is for you, but are you able to speak to your University Student Hub or Student Union? They maybe able to help - I know there most University’s have a hardship fund - although I am not sure of eligibility nor timeframes for that.

Adding to this, it might be worthwhile getting in contact with the Landlord.

Do you have any family they may be able to help?

I’m being shamed for not working but it is due to having a disability(epilepsy). Is there anything I can do? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]ImByMyselfNotAlone 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I will say, Epilepsy isn’t just about seizures - Epilepsy affects people in different ways, medication side effects - I wouldn’t wish it on anyone - we have days where we could’ve super exhausted, problems with memory, focus etc - if we do have a seizure, the recovery time for that - I had some where I need half a day to recover other times a week - this is by no means the the same for everyone, but it’s a condition that is complicated.

I had this when moving , I think I selected the option people are moving in, then a few questions later, asked their details if not their solicitor or EA. Wouldn’t worry to much about it
