I’ve already asked a similar question, but it was so long, no one wants to read or answer it lol.
So he’s it summarized!
Banged head, had scan, found out I had abnormal brain waves, started on meds, went for 3 monthly checkups which involved blood tests to determine whether the level of my meds was right, ended up gradually being on 8 tablets a day, don’t have seizures.. Tried 3 different meds and all made me sick, gave me headaches, made me more tired, made me fall over with bad balance.. Haven’t been to hospital for 3 years, haven’t been on meds for 3 years.. Cancelled appointments and took myself off meds.. They didn’t work, made me sick, and with no seizures, I feel I’m no threat to myself or other people (don’t drive anyway).. I’m 20 and female. Started feeling ill again, went to docs, have low blood pressure + low sugar levels.. He said that’s why I feel rough. Do you think I should go back for a check up + try some new meds? Close to passing driving test and don’t want to put other people at risk if stopping the meds was wrong.
Been having headaches, feeling tired, my vision goes bright + things seem really white.. Feel dizzy but in an odd way, like I’m really light and feel really relaxed. Have bad balance.
Don’t wanna waste the consultants time if it’s just my low blood pressure/sugar levels.. Do these sound like Epilepsy related symptoms?
It takes 10 buses for me to get too and from the hospital on a work day!! My Mum wont have anymore time off work to take me and this is why I cancelled the appointments rather than trying hard to find the right meds at the time.. When you feel rough, 10 buses is a bit much, 5 there, 5 back.. Just couldn’t be arsed when I was 17 to be honest! But now I feel ill again.. I’m going to make the effort.
