What else is new right?? - Epilepsy Message Board

KittyMom · 08-22-2003, 02:12 PM

Hello All,

Have not heard from Grumps, Amy and Lisa for a while. I think we all have an onset of new problems and challenges that we are trying to work out. I have not been my usual chatty-self due to company, a bad working environment and an onset of new challenges. For this I am sorry! I miss EVERYONE!! I am not on to welcome new people to the board. I am not here for the return of people who have been away for a while. I miss this board!

I have a new set of problems coming on. I am seeing an increase of seizures and a new type of aura. I am getting some problems on my left side with twitches (minor) and that is scaring me. I have a lot plus I need to work and I don't see my husband any longer as they changed his work schedule around. I need some anti depressants...I know I do. I will start a new job on Monday but it is not the job I wanted. The one I wanted doesn't know if it can accomidate my hours. We will see on Monday.

Sorry to complain and drift around subjects like that. I had a doozie of a seizure last night and I feel terrable. My postictals are getting worse. I am going to go now. I must entertain the mother-in-law. She leaves on Wed. Please write cause I do check in from time to time. I will write even if it is little.

Miss you all and God Bless you,
KittyMom

Hello Kitty,
I am sorry to hear about your seizure last night & also sorry to hear about how you have been feeling every since you came back from the hosp. I hope things only get better for you.
Every time I see your name on the board I look in on it, you are like the master of the board

Just remember that God is always with you & watching over you.

Hugs & Kisses,

JB,

Thank you sooooooo much for your kind words. It is people like you that make this place as terrific as it is. You have been such a highlight to this place...Thank YOU!!

How are you?? I hope this finds you well. My situation will get better I know. I just hope it is sooner rather than later. I miss being here on this board. I feel my best when I read the encouraging words of my Family In "E". I will be going back to my normal "posting" self soon. I just have some company right now. I love my mother-in-law to death. I am lucky, most people hate theirs.

Anyway, thanks again for being there and your lovely words sweetie. Talk to you soon.

God Bless,
KittyMom

Hey kitty!

I am so sorry I have not been posting much, I have NOT been feeling so good this week, this Topamax has gotten me down, it's very reminiscint of the Dilantin! I am trying to be patient and give it another week to see how it works, but as of now I'm ready to chunk it out the window!

Have you gotten any results back yet on the tests?? Sorry you are having such a bad week! I will try to be better about getting on here! I have just been working and sleeping and that is about IT!

Talk to you soon, hugs to you!

Amy

Amy,

It is ok sweetie! You don't have to write if you don't feel up to it. I knew you were feeling aweful on this darn medicine but to be perfectly honest, I forgot. These seizures mess with my memory something aweful. I doesn't happen at the times of seizures either. I have to be reminded of things all the time. I Hate It!! Important stuff too. I will forget important things that someone tells me and is soooooo rude (like I don't care about them)when I say, "What was that again?" It is like I don't care enough to remember but I DO!! I just have trouble with my memory. Holding a job is hard too. Unless it is routine, I will forget. I HATE THIS!!

Anyway sweetie, don't worry about it. I am the one who should be saying sorry to YOU!! Please, do what makes you feel better. That is what matters!

God Bless you honey,
KittyMom
