Seizures - The Sequel

[tinhuvielartanis]

Thanks to everyone for all the well-wishes. That's really sweet of you.

Dr. Pilch has increased my Topamax to two a day for five days, then three a day after that. I'm taking Topamax for my migraines, but it's also a seizure medicine, so I lucked out. Ha Ha!

Aunt Tudi and I went out to dinner with Aunt Janice and Uncle Michael. Todd sent Aunt Tudi a gift card for Outback, so we went Australian this evening. I had an appetizer's before my steak: crab-stuffed shrimp. They were deeeeelicious. If I ever get to go back, I'm not getting a steak. I'm having the crab-stuffed shrimp for an appetizer and for dinner. In fact, they could just give me a big tub of that crab stuffing and let me bathe in it. It was that good and that's no lie.

I've taken all my meds now and I'm going to try to sleep. I did sleep really well last night in between the seizures, which I don't remember at all. All I remember is Aunt Tudi freaking out on me. I hate I scared her.

I adore the advert people at Geico. The caveman commercials are genius, just as stack of money with eyes, and the old guy with the gecko. The old guy/gecko advert with them in the bathroom talking about ringtones is golden. "Ring-a ding ding ding-a-dee-ding ding-e-do!" HAHAHAHA! Now they have this Mission Impossible type man asking the question "Can Geico really save you 15% or more on car insurance? Does 10 pounds of flour make a really big biscuit?" And then it shows this little boy buttering this huuuge biscuit! Omigawd, I just want to hang out with the Geico advert department. They've got to be the most hilarious folks on Earth. I love them. Wait, I'm gonna see if it's on You Tube. Yep! Here it is. Enjoy!

I leave the Internet for a few hours and I miss the important stuff!!

I hope this Topamax does the trick and balances the electronic zooms firing about in that rather remarkable brain of yours.

I'm very glad you're under such good care, and I hope the Topamax works.

*hugs*

Mmmhmmmm...I hope that your body finds peace!

(If you wake up tonight, and see something that looks like Kilroy looking around the corner of your door, it's just Aunt Tudi trying to be unobtrusive while checking on you!)

AH SIEZURES! I hope you can figure out what's going on soon!

AS for the commercial (which is hilarious) I wonder if they are referencing Robert Stack from the old creepy show "Unsolved Mysteries?"



That's definitely what it made me think of right away. I used to watch that creepy ass show with my grandma, LOL

Thinking of you. Please, please, please feel better.

Hope you got a good night's sleep!

I hope that your lack of sleep is considered a possible reason for the seizures, and perhaps they can be treated together. They seem related to me, for some reason. I'm up here worrying about you, for what it's worth.

Hopefully the Topamax does the trick.

Just be warned it may also have "brain of mush" side effects, and you may grow to hate meats and sugars - a friend of mine had these problem when she was on topamax for a while.

Damn, hun, seizures? What HAVE you been doing to yourself while I've been going crazy??
