13 weeks seizure free
nick205 - 9/9/16 at 09:24 AM

Granted it's not for everyone, but today sees me 13 weeks epileptic seizure free. Now on my 3rd type of medication and whilst it makes me tired it does seem to be working. Looking at the prospect of losing my garage, but could be on the way back to driving at some point.

Onwards and upwards as "they" say (never quite sure who "they" are though).

Thank you both - much appreciated.

Personally I have to look up and not down - it keeps me going!

Great stuff Nick... my other half went through similar though with only one change of drugs so know a bit what you are going through.

Cheers Alex

Nice to read something with a feel good factor :-)

Good news. It really must be a relief. A close friend has been prone to seizures after a transplant and he's now gone a similar time after his last medication tweak. It was really starting to get him down.

Onwards and upwards!

Thanks again for the good wishes and yes it is a boost to make some progress!

Nick,

Hope you continue episode free and can get that license back soon

A friend of mine went through this - two year ban on diving, a small setback which added a few months on but now its got to be 15 years since they sorted out hes medication and no further problems. It's a pain while things get sorted out but they can and will get the right balance with the medication (they probably already have) and there is a future with no further incidents. Hang on, you will get there. :-)

Well done Nick. Long may your good health continue.

Good news Mate ! Really pleased for you

Haven't forgotten I promised you a blat, I will have the Indy back on the road at some point and it will happen

Good news Nick, long may it continue.

Fingers crossed for you.


nick205 - 14/9/16 at 08:05 AM

Thanks all - still seizure free and doing well. It's starting to become less of an issue for me too. Just been in Amsterdam for two days for work and although a busy trip (trade show) it was good to be out and about.

If there was a like button I'd have pressed it. Fingers crossed for you...
