Seizure -29th September 2008

Not sure why this one happened...

I was sitting in the office in the early hours of the afternoon, typing away at the keyboard when I suddenly detect the aura of a seizure. I'm not sure if it's passing on not so I start concentrating on it and trying to keep the effects under control (Steady deep breathing and so on). One of my colleagues notices me and asks if I'm alright. I tell him I'm not sure and then I tell him I can feel an aura/seizure coming, and I sit down on the floor. They say they're going to call for an ambulance and I say I'll be fine, I just want to ride it through. I can feel it getting worse but I still don't want to give in. Then the paramedics turn up and assist me to the ambulance. They won't let me walk on my own. I don't remember much after this; I was brought into the hospital and put on a wheelchair. my colleagues fussed around me a little and I just sat there. I don't know whether I was drooling, shaking, talking bollocks or whatever.

The next thing I recall is when I'm assisted onto a hospital bed and have electrode attached to various parts of my body, and a couple of cannula inserted into my arms.

Anyway it's the following day now; I left the hospital at just before 5. Now I'm just very tired and only a little bit hungry.

The Black and Decker beckons...

My biopsy is in 2 weeks time. I'm a little apprehensive but who wouldn't be?

If there are no posts after this one, you'll know that they screwed up the op!
