Chalfont Epilepsy

Chalfont EpilepsyI have a friend who suffers from epilepsy do we have this disease and can help me?

It is a place called the National Society for Epilepsy Chalfont St. Peters, England.

Yes, I suffered from this condition as a child and know he is horrible at first hand. I usually take part in public and it was so embarrassing to have a lot of people gawping at you and call you a spaz. I used to take medication for it - the consultant epinutin get me started on that made me like a zombie, three years after they have changed to Epilim which does me no good then they put me on Tegratol which I stayed until 13 and I eventually weaned. I am now able for free for 16 years but its still possible for me to have suits but only by a pain its just lucky I know the warning signs, its different for everyone, but for me to First I get a ringing in my ears (like the tone you hear when you go on a TV), then my head goes all fuzzy, I begin to see patterns star before my eyes, then the ringer louder, blur becomes blurred, so nothing is black! I hope I was of some help, but there are plenty of websites offering a wealth of information, the British Association of Epilepsy is one of them, I just wanted to share my personal experience of the state and We hope that your friend is ok.

My boyfriend has it, that I can help with u? Info? Tips?

Your not giving enough information to answer your question because I do not know what it is.

Yes, my youngest brother, I know how difficult it can be done so well.
I get all my information from:
http://www.epilepsy.com
It really helped me because he was diagnosed

Yes my mother has severe, it is a drug called Epilim. It is shaped roughly once every six weeks (on avergage, of course), but not necessarily upset or lose consciousness, and each episode lasts about 10 seconds and it usually has no recollection of it afterwards, but will usually sleep immediately. It is generally white (like a zombie) for about 3 seconds before an episode is the tail to grasp before it falls. It has damaged the head a few times, stitches, but fortunately no lasting effects.

It is more common for her to fall and Mutter incoherent, as if they were drunk, and usually it gets wet, with no recollection of doing so when it presents itself.

But she did not suffer lasting effects after an episode and is still working full time.

Hope this helps!

There are many websites if you want more info, but especially do not let your friend feel inadequate in any way or have a "handicap" in the traditional sense.

Make sure to comfort them and lift them out of the public eye (for example, off the floor) if they have an episode, but DO NOT attempt to move them, they have a WHILE episode, only the cradle their heads in order not to hit it.
