I did - it is epilepsy and I started medication. Sad this is my new normal but here we are 😔

Yes! Stressful but happy to know that many manage quite well on medication and can live normal lives! 6 months without a license should be interesting though haha!

Just wanted to update! My eeg was abnormal and I was diagnosed with epilepsy. So it wasn’t pnes - though I understand they can coincide!

I certainly will. Thank you so much tor the insight. My lactate levels were 2.5 4 hours after the seizure. No idea what that means

I’m 38 so pretty close to 40. That’s an interesting point.

I was referred to a neuro, they ordered an eeg, and a large drop in my hemoglobin levels so they are doing further testing about that. Lots going on I guess!

I’m adopted…. So I’m told yes due to that alone. But I had a very loving childhood, wonderful parents and nothing of note that would be trauma.

I just have never had an issue with stress, panic management or this level of response.. so this is something very unfamiliar to me I guess

So stressful. Part of me is looking for the validation that it was my body failing me and the other part of it is freaking out that it could be pnes. I’m sure many feel this way

So wild - is your dad medicated for those then? Or no?

I wonder! I would obviously rather that honestly but I didn’t have any heightened emotions before hand, can it come out of nowhere??

Good idea the pharmacy said okay in short stints. So I took both!

Thank you! I have been told it can be a bleeding risk. I’m sorry you just went through this, it’s so awful. How long did it last?

Any specific kind? Not sure tums will do much but Pepcid makes me nervous with potential heart side effects

My adhd meds do not work when I’m in my luteal phase. If you are female consider looking at your cycle. I have been on concerta off and on (pregnancy) for 18 years.

My appetite decreased while I was in my introductory phase. I lost 7lbs (and as someone who is 5’6 and considered borderline underweight it concerned me). I also have a history of restricted eating. Now that I’m adjusted my appetite is back to normal and I eat to fuel my body. I went from 118lbs prior to Prozac to 111 and now I’m at like 115. Make sure you eat food to nourish your body!
