Title: Blackouts or seizures post surgery Post by snowenadia on Jul 16th, 2010 at 11:47pm
Has anyone experienced these?
I work in NYC. On Tuesday I was on the subway en route to work. I looked up at the sign and it said the train was approaching a stop that is 2 stops ahead of mine. The next thing I know, I am 3 stops past my stop with no recollection of the 10+ minutes that had passed from the time I looked up at the sign and where I was at that moment. I blacked out. The doctors are pretty sure it was a seizure. I was taken off Keppra (which was prescribed right after surgery) in early May. I am now back on it, but I am terrified. I do not feel safe leaving the house out of fear that I could be crossing the street and black out again. I am lucky I was already sitting down and recovered pretty quickly, but...this is just scary. I think I am more terrified now than I was before the surgery. Any insight or encouraging words would be helpful. Thanks. |

I'm sorry to hear that Amy. I also still have migraines which I know is normal, but the I never had any blackouts pre-surgery.
