I recently started work back last month, with my shift beginning at 11:30 AM every day from mon-fri, and I also have recently have been working overtime for the past five days (until 4:30 PM instead of the usual 3:30 PM).

Yesterday, I felt lightheaded (which does happen to me from time to time), and, the next thing I remembered was that I was at the nearest Hospital. I was asked by my family if I remember being put in an ambulance and I honestly do not. It was not until today that I was told that I had grand mal seizure. I am thinking that I also may had some stress brought on by having to attend Jury Duty for the first time on Monday and the studying that I have to do for my final exam at College. This is probably the second seizure that I had all this year (but probably the first grand mal one).

I want to let you know that I am doing a little better today and I hope these seizures stay at a minimum from now on (I am on medicine that was prescribed to me at the beginning of the year).

Glad to know you're alright. That must have been terrifying.

I sympathize with you on the college stress--and the Jury Duty thing. I've been called in for it before; what a pain.

Thanks for telling us, PixarFan. And like Divinity said, glad to hear you're all right.

I'm sorry to hear this, but I'm glad you've got your condition under control. Seizures must be awful

That must have been a scary experience . . . I hope you continue to feel better and wish you luck with the medication you're on!

This sure sounds pretty bad but I wish you luck and hope somehow you get what you need so you don't have another one.

My dog occasionally has seizures; it's quite scary and very difficult to watch. I hope that you're doing better. And I understand the whole college stress thing, too. This week (the week before finals) has literally been hell. I hope you recover quickly!

Since you are a student, you can't waive the jury duty? We can here in Canada.

I got a jury summons right when I was planning to move, but I told them to stuff it as I was moving out of the province.

The seizure could be stress related. Have any other things going on like migraines or headaches?

I am so glad you are better now! I didn't know you had seizures! So, you have a medical condition? You dont' have to tell us if you don't want, and I'm sorry this happened to you, but hey, that medication coming sounds good!
