You can do this before breakfast/lunch/dinner or before bedtime or in bed.Remember to take deep long breaths into the lungs.You can do this while sitting on floor or chair or lying in bed.
thanks for you responses - yes, I have the same kind. I only have them maybe once every 6 months or so. I wake up at night, wake up my husband then repeat a phrase like "ok ok ok ok" or "hey hey hey hey" then shiver then back to sleep. Headache when wake up ... and not realize I did that or possibly have a faint-faint memory. But I realize it's a lot related to stress, not getting enough sleep. I think that because I take so much medicine that's where my concern comes in.
I do have something that's happening to my body right now. I don't know if I ask it here so I'll start a new question. Thank you again for your help.
I would describe it as a "brain fog" or haze. Many times, it's just as though I've picked up where left off, though I don't quite realize what I've done. Obviously, if I've dropped a candy bar I'd see that... do you have partial, I'd guess?
The post-ictal phase is how you feel after the seizure, such as when you might feel confused, have a headache, or feel tired.
what's post-ictal phase? Also, in about 2 weeks I am going to take a "drug holiday", which means I come off of the adderall for a period of time.
yes - lamectal, keppra, prozac, adderall
Are you currently on anti-epileptic medication? Sometimes these meds can produce side effects similar to what you stated above. Also, post-ictal phases can cause some of the symptoms you describe.
