Thank you @greenleaf all your and @Lucycat sresearch has been so so helpful. I am so touched by all the support I have been given by the members of this forum words alone cannot express my heartfelt gratitude. Off to see my own DR now for a full review and to arrange further investigations.

Well I have seen my own GP now and an urgent neuro referral for an EEG is being sought. Meds have been drastically amended and I am sleeping better every night now than I have in years :) I am having to give up my flat as it is not safe for me to live alone anymore, so I have moved back in with my mum and brother.

Am still having multiple seizures both Peti and Gran Mal every day . I am so grateful for all the support this forum has given me at this, probably scariest time of my life. Thank you all so very much.

Well, had numerous X-rays, Dracula 's little sister paid me a long visit and sucked at least three pints of blood ( at least she was well cute ;) then they sent me straight home again !!!!!

Well New Years Eve saw me have the biggest and most violent seizure yet. I have been left with 2 black eyes, a cracked cheek bone and swollen jaw, so much swelling to the soft tissue of my left chest, they cannot actually tell is I have broken my ribs or not. If I have then I have 8 broken ribs as well. During my fit-seizure, I have managed to bite straight through my left check and have a huge hole in my face.

I have just spent the last 2 days in hospital, had 3 more MRI's and 2 Cat-Scans, yet still no EEG which will be the conclusive and Cheapest way of finally diagnosing what is making me have so many fits ( 88 major fits in 31 days !!)

I have now been prescribed even more tablets a day and now take 75 pills a day, FFS Dr's get a grip and actually diagnose me properly. If I shake my ankle it sounds like a Maraca I am on that many meds now........

I'd "like" that, because I've wondered how you were doing and am glad for the update, but it sounds horrible! I hope they get this sorted out very soon.You're in my thoughts and prayers!
