Advice Please

Hi, I am very upset to report that yesterday I had what appeared to be a seizure whilst out walking my dog. Cant remember anything but waking up in an ambulance. I take lamotrigine and have not had a seizure for 12 years - is it the pessimist in me that thinks I have lost my license or am I just being realistic?

  1. Hi,

    I am so sorry to hear about this. I understand what you are going through. As far as you losing your license, it depends on the state. Find out the state and what their laws are. Believe me, you will get through this.
