Amazing!!! I have gone over half a year-almost 7 months seizure free. One of the BIG knockers for seizures, to get them rolling with me having epilepsy when it was active-was stress. I ran into pouring amounts of stress, and I didn't even recognize it. I never do until it is too late somehow. Before I would have been in seizure states--now, I have been in extreme, unexplainable pain 2 months after my 3rd brain surgery. At the time when I was "well" so I could go work out, and function!! Immediately I was put to halt in pain all over the body. And it has been that way since April. On every extreme pain medication known out there. Then we moved to Philly, where I lived when I was 17--but a lot to do when in severe pain. And it was sad there. I couldn't go up our stairs. Couldn't have fun with my daughter. The stress points in my life had calmed-but all the surgeries I had continued to keep the pain there too. And until I saw my doctors out here at Mayo hospital-where they ran every drastic test-and it boiled down to Fibromyalgia. It wasn't fun to hear-but I was in severe tears anyway. But the good is-my family grew very close... thru all the hard stuff. The hard stuff that helped me back on the saddle for Christ. My amazing brother. My loving husband. My parents with such hearts-my family just rocks thru every step I try to take-and for this I am grateful.
Very hard to understand that a surgery to do such good, could cause such trauma. Made me sad. But He has a reason for every thing. And will get me thru this as well.

Just be sure to watch all stress-that you acknowledge it-take care of it--or it can build up on other illnesses.

Praying for your epilepsy--many cures, not all have crazy reactions!!!

In His Love,
