Need help

Hi I’m new to this I’ve been haven seizures for years but last few months have been worse I forget to breathe I lose my voice and have no recollection of what has happened to me I don’t have any memories after the seizure. I can have up to 4 or 5 a day with the last two weeks be uncontrollable I’ve been in and out of hospital they call them absent seizures but since then I’ve gotten worse and have more symptom. I only found out that fibromyalgia can cause them is well as I was diagnosed at 36 with severe fibromyalgia for my age at time it was 9 months before I could walk with out help before I could hold a cup or fork in my had it was that bad. So I don’t know if there been causesd be the fibromyalgia or is there something else going on . Yesterday I had 5 seizures some straight after another

  1. Hi I am sure this has been a lot for you. I can imagine how scary and confusing this has been. Does your doctor think this increase in seizures is from the fibromyalgia? Do they have a plan in place to try to help you control what is going on? This must be overwhelming. I really hope you can get the help you need. Please let us know what your medical team thinks. Sending you so much strength. Jill (Team Member)
