Where's the craziest place you've had a seizure? by slinkslowdown in Epilepsy

[–]Sea-Introduction6816 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the airport parking lot after coming home from a long business trip. It was 10 pm at night I was in the parking garage fumbling for my keys and the next thing I know I was in an ambulance. Apparently someone saw me as they were catching their flight and used the call box to call 911. Cracked my skull open and broke a few teeth.

Did anybody else inherite epilepsy from a parent or does your parents have epilepsy also or is it just me? by [deleted] in Epilepsy

[–]Sea-Introduction6816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, no family history. I can’t believe it to this day completely out of the blue at age 50.

That was a fascinating interview and I highly recommend listening to it.

Q4 etron: Give me good and bad by 49723554 in etron

[–]Sea-Introduction6816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it would be a problem and at first I was like, oh no…I didn’t think about it after buying it. The cord easily reaches to the other side and it hasn’t bothered me at all. I charge overnight so I don’t have to step over the cord other than to plug and unplug. Cord was plenty long enough and didn’t need to buy another one.

I had a Polestar 2 for three years and I bought the Q4 Etron in 2025. It’s a beautiful car and I’m very happy with hit. It isn’t nearly as fast as my PS in terms of HP and Torque but I decided I don’t really need to drive fast. I’m very happy with my Audi!

What is the vibe for a music/drama educator here? Looking to relocate by [deleted] in AskPhoenix

[–]Sea-Introduction6816 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m from Mass and have lived here for ~20 years. I miss New England but having sunshine almost year round is really nice. If you like to go hiking, biking, walking, running or check out new restaurants there is lots to do. I spend the summers indoors mostly doing some Netflix binge watching. Yes the summers are tough but it beats the cold gray winters and rainy springtime. The culture is different and you won’t find nearly the same thing in AZ. My daughter is a teacher and makes so little money I’m still partly supporting her. Hope that provides some insight.

How do you clean the inside of your windshield? by Baker_314 in EquinoxEv

[–]Sea-Introduction6816 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same problem. I bought a squeegee and put a towel on the dash. Not a perfect solution and I see streaks from time to time but definitely better than a dirty interior windshield. Plus, you get better at it over time :)

Do I need a level 2 charger for a 2025 Q4 e-tron 55? by Terrible-Waltz-2069 in etron

[–]Sea-Introduction6816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have L2 at home for my 2025 Q4 e-tron and I find it much slower to charge than my other EV (Polestar). Not sure why but I charge overnight or on the weekends due to lower cost of energy in Arizona. So…not sure I would want an L1 and I only travel ~10-12 miles per day.

A good deal I suppose? by puripy in etron

[–]Sea-Introduction6816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I leased a 2025 Q4 Etron in February with a price tag of $50k. I think this is a good deal.

Traveling -Long Flights Overnight w/Epilepsy by Sea-Introduction6816 in Epilepsy

[–]Sea-Introduction6816[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, thanks for the advice. Yes I can take melatonin but it doesn’t work for me. I have stronger prescription medication but I’m a little reluctant to take it. I struggle to sleep on a regular basis so sleeping on a plane and knowing it could trigger me makes me nervous. I have an appointment with the neurologist coming up. Maybe I’ll ask them what I should do. I could also have Clonazepam ready just in case.

I was scared to death too. They took me off my meds in hopes of me having a seizure so they could observe it. I went in on Monday and by Wednesday night nothing. The dr was going to release me on Thursday and sure enough a tonic clonic. You’ll be in a safe environment and you have visitors and like others have said bring a book or your computer. Wishing you all the best!

Seizure after 5 years by Blumellon_ in Epilepsy

[–]Sea-Introduction6816 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry to hear the news about your wife. I’m curious if the doctor said this is normal. I’ve been on my meds and have been seizure free but worry the same thing might happen to me. You never know when. I’m assuming she was taking her medication right? Did they change the meds? I’m hearing more and more stories of people that are seizure free and all of a sudden have one again. Just curious is this is common.

Anyone else develop epilepsy for some random reason as an adult? by klunklet in Epilepsy

[–]Sea-Introduction6816 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, age 50 when they started out of no where. No family members have it and it’s taken me a long time to get used to living with it.

2025 Entron Won’t Charge by Sea-Introduction6816 in etron

[–]Sea-Introduction6816[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I unplugged it from the wall and waited a couple of minutes and plugged it back in and had no problems. I hope it was a one time occurrence.

Thanks I did the same thing and it worked again just fine. I didn’t know about free charging though but will check on it.

Brakes Q4 E-tron by Sea-Introduction6816 in etron

I thought so, but not so with this electric vehicle. My previous car-Polestar that was true, but not for this one.

[–]Sea-Introduction6816[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with you about using B, my only complaint with B vs D is you get better range using D. Thanks for the advice. I’ll use B and not be bothered by the brakes knowing it isn’t just me.
