Several Seizures Sent a Shocker in My Nerves
Current mood: I Just Want to Sleep!! cry

Ever since Sunday, April 20th, I've been in a bad shape. First of all, what happened on the 20th? I had several seizures. First one, I fell down. Second one, on the floor. The rest, in bed. It was around 2-3ish AM on Sunday morning. Thank god that I did not bust my head opened like last year. Results of this, I have bruised hands, my face is bruised and hurts in several areas, the side of my tongue is badly bitten, as well as the inside of my cheek.

It seems that the seizures have shot my nerves pretty badly, because now I'm so fidgety.. I can't sleep! I feel like there's lightning going through my nerves, and head. It's almost 5 am as I'm writing this, and I still haven't gotten to sleep yet. I can't stop moving all around in bed... can't get comfortable. All shakey-like. I'm in a terrible shape.

The cause could be from something called Catamenial Epilepsy. If you didn't know I had epilepsy, now you do. (Look it up, if you don't know what it is...) Anyway, Catamenial Epilepsy effects women with Epilepsy, during the menstrual cycle. Since I was starting on Sunday, TA-DA! There's the cause of my seizures. There's a treatment for Catamenial. It's a pill to take once a month. I'm seeing my doctor on May 2nd, so I'll see what the doctor says.

*Sigh* Time to get prepared for being a lab rat, again. Ugh, right now I just want to stop shaking! I want to be able to sleep right now!!!!

If you'd like to know anymore information about Catamenial Epilepsy, or Epilepsy, you can look at these links:

Yeah, that's great. I've had bad experiences with pizza, too.

I hope the pill, should you be able to take it, helps.
