I think that on this sight we all have some kind of understanding what others are going through. I know my seizures are not nearly as bad as others, but I do feel that I can sympathize with what they are going through

I think we all do. Everyone's seizures are a little different but yet in some ways similar.
Side effects to medications; well, there are so many different ones anything is possible.

Dave the short time I've been on this site I have learned more from others then I did since being diagnosed in 1978. What I learned from docs and my own research was more or less general info about my condition. this is real life experiences. I greatly appreciate the articles, the stories, the open dialog, and the suggestions on this site. we can't fully understand how each of us is effected by seizures but we can give each other support to make the day a bit better
