Hi all. Really long post, I apologize. I'm 20 years old and since I was 3 years old I've had faints/mainly seizures. The first time it happened at 3 I had a temperature. Since then I've had a seizure at least every year, apart from once when I went around 2 years without one.
Since 3 I've had seizures randomly. However have also had one whilst running (twice) one was a seizure one was a faint, when I was on a trampoline, when on a bouncy castle, whilst sat on a bus, whilst sat eating a meal. I also had a seizure once when I was extremely scared and once when I was extremely upset but now they do occur randomly most of the time - I haven't had a seizure for a particular reason in a long time.
Most recently my last seizure was 3 months ago at 4am when I woke up with a leg cramp (wasn't particularly painful or anything, it may have just been coincidence) I got up and walked about then had one.
I have around 5 seconds before I seizure that I know I'm going to have one - then I have a fuzzy feeling in my head and collapse.
My dad passes out vary rarely with pain he cannot tolerate. My auntie used to have seizures/pass out but she grew out of it, whilst my other aunt rarely passes out but has been known to.
I've had:
several ecgs
a holter monitor
an echo
a tilt table test
two mri brain scans
Until recently nothing was found on the tests, they've now seen sinus tachycardia and second degree type 1 heart block on my 4 day holter monitor.
So, after looking online and by chance finding Long QT and worryingly sounding similar to my situation, I'm worried I could have it.
Does anybody have any advice? Does anybody think it sounds like I have it?
I'm currently petrified I'm going to have a sudden cardiac arrest!!
My cardiologist has never mentioned this condition to me.
Thanks.
