I still don't remember very well though, but I do feel like I can think straighter! My Dr. acted like for everyone who has adult onset seizures, there is a reason, so I hope you are able to figure it out--Carmenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18149143366682107194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3802489980680036040.post-7934472513485369362012-09-10T14:57:49.545-07:002012-09-10T14:57:49.545-07:00Hi Carmen, found your blog thru another site.

I, like you, suddenly starting have simple partial seizures and then a Grand Mal three year's ago out of the blue. I have to wonder if an allergy could be something that may have triggered mine as well? I hate the sz meds; they are making me forget everything, including names! Ugh...Thank you for sharing your story and I hope by now you are completely sz and sz med free!! :)<br /><br />Tinatinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3802489980680036040.post-21659996841447776022012-05-12T06:03:00.037-07:002012-05-12T06:03:00.037-07:00carmen, this is the first but I have seen your blo...carmen, this is the first but I have seen your blog. I have really enjoyed getting Icaught up with your life through here. had no idea you were experiencing all of this, and I am so sorry I did not know sooner. I'm really glad you have found a doctor who is helping you get some relief. I have been off all grain and starches, nightshades and dairy since the beginning of january. it was very tricky to eat out when we first started, but I have been doing better with that now. I will definitely be coming back to your blog again. thanks for being so candid! -amy c.AmyLovesDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12462250530477957696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3802489980680036040.post-85999774427116813802012-05-08T17:09:34.874-07:002012-05-08T17:09:34.874-07:00You are correct, I do have to read a lot of labels...You are correct, I do have to read a lot of labels!!

Found out I was allergic to 20+ food items. So 8 years ago I had to drastically change my diet if I wanted to get some relief. It has been VERY hard as I can't eat out anymore or eat snacks people bring to work or church. It has forced me to cook all my meals and do a lot of baking. I make my own bread, icecream, etc. It is A LOT of work but I feel so much better so I totally understand! Your not the only one out there. :) <br />-Kristi FriesenKristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15847012051881062467noreply@blogger.com
