I’m looking for support/advice. I’ve had 2 seizures in the past month. Possibly 2 others in March although no one else was home so they are not confirmed. It looks like I’ll be diagnosed as epileptic and I’m so sad. Sad for the constant fear of another seizure, sad my DH has to constantly worry, sad my baby could be in harms way in my care.

A little background:
DS is 9mo and I was exclusively pumping. I had my first confirmed seizure on my kitchen floor on May 9th in front of DH minutes after my nighttime pumping session.
Doctors put me on Keppra. I had an MRI, CT, and EEG that all came back normal. Dr told me to go off the Keppra since it very well could have been just a one-time fluke. I halved my dose for a week. 36 hours after my last dose, I had another seizure. Spent 24hours in the hospital at which point they put me back in Keppra. I was told to stop breastfeeding. I can’t drive for 3 months. I watch other kids during the week, but obviously the parents are not comfortable with me being alone with the kids. So I’m out of work for at least the summer.

I’m not really sure what I’m looking for. Maybe it’s just a vent. If you or anyone you love has experience with seizures, I’d love to hear your story.
