Up until Oct.2007, I worked 40 hours a day and was able to drive any where and any time I wanted. Then October I had a seizure and haven't been able to work or drive. I stay in the house 24/7 cause my husband works. I do get out on Sundays only to go along with him to bowling, which the doctor told me I can't do. I take Absent Seizures, Have a study headache on the left side that never goes away and have dizzy spells everyday Oh and I can't forget the memory loss and the confusion I have daily.I know it sounds like I'm complaining and feeling sorry for myself but i'm really not. I'm just not use to all of this. I was dieting and losing weight and starting to feel good about myself. And then Oct. my life changed to staying home 24/7 unless I have to go get blood work, to the doctors or a vist to the hospital for a few days or to get some kind of test done. And now the doctor called yesterday to tell me I'm a diebetic and I do need to lose weight. So how do I get back on track losing weight and start to feel good about myself feeling so stress out?
My seizures are getting under controll. But the dr. can't figure out wat is causing the headache, dizzy spells or confusion and the forgetfulness.
Thanks for letting me unload.
