TalkAboutIt
@TalkAboutItOrgIf you have #epilepsy, does your best friend know what to do if you have a seizure?
TalkAboutIt
@TalkAboutItOrgWe know stress is a big trigger for #seizures. Anything you can do to reduce your stress will help. For example, this mom uses taekwondo to help "take down" her #epilepsy. https://t.co/0NKxg6B2z7

@TalkAboutItOrgLove the @RochesterBeacon story by Amer, a high school student helping his local #epilepsy center. "While my condition has caused some problems, others with epilepsy have it much worse. That’s why I’m organizing...Seize the Day: Amer’s Trail Epilepsy Run." https://t.co/kZoRnpMDVI

@TalkAboutItOrg@ErinZirpolo @Bryan_TGP @iampaulgrenier Sometimes our own egos get in the way of doing what is best for us, health-wise. Being a friend is important, even if that means being a nudging friend.
TalkAboutIt
@TalkAboutItOrg@jarivs1 You should look into it again. Seizure tracking diaries are great tools, but, yes, they require work… but it’s worth it. Especially if you are looking to improve seizure management.
TalkAboutIt
@TalkAboutItOrgSome of our followers talked about the importance of keeping a journal & tracking your seizures. We agree! Take notes. Memory is fleeting. A journal or a calendar of seizure activities & thoughts about them will help with your health care visits. (TY @LorrieForseth & @LAFox)

@TalkAboutItOrgVery important point. Medication levels in the body need to be maintained or else there is a risk of a breakthrough seizure. Keeping up with your meds is very important.

@TalkAboutItOrgYes. Make sure you prepare in advance for every medical appointment. A journal is a great tool. And do not be afraid of asking the hard and tough questions.

@TalkAboutItOrg@TheJudeTaylor Understandable, but sometimes talking about epilepsy or any chronic disease can help raise awareness among your community and therefore reduce any risk of pity. Your story is important.

@TalkAboutItOrg@hollyjoengle Keep your eyes open for those options. New ones available often.
TalkAboutIt
@TalkAboutItOrg@BrainAblaze @FlossieRoss1971 Correct. People should always push to live to their fullest potentials whether living with seizures or not. But if you still live with seizures, keep seeking new treatments and options to see about stopping those seizures.
TalkAboutIt
@TalkAboutItOrgIf you are still having seizures, have you sought out a new treatment option?
TalkAboutIt
@TalkAboutItOrgThis article has some heavy sciencey language — but it proves that research is always happening into causes of all kinds of #epilepsy — including early developing #seizures. Ongoing research means always new hopes for new treatments. https://t.co/ZCoMm1SEh2

@TalkAboutItOrg@vanwalterop Make sure you talk to your docs about those side effects… new treatments may hold your seizure control and improve your side effects. Worth talking about with your health team. New options occur often.

@TalkAboutItOrgNew treatments for #seizures are being developed all the time. Clinical Trials are definitely worth exploring if you have uncontrolled seizures and have explored currently available options. https://t.co/vjqjf1XW0i

@TalkAboutItOrg@gwencrutt @disney__tasthic Usually seizure impact from photosensitive epilepsy occurs at the time of the trigger. Although a headache or other lingering aspects can go longer or be after the initial triggering circumstance.

@TalkAboutItOrgIf you have seizures, don’t look back… keep moving forward. Step by step. You have allies. You have friends. You have options. Science is always learning more. Talk to your health care team. Turn any despair into hope. Always hope. And action. We stand with you.

TalkAboutIt
@TalkAboutItOrgIt would be great if everyone could get a warning right before they have a #seizure. But it doesn’t happen all the time. And it doesn’t happen to a lot of people. Do you get a warning? Do you feel an aura? That feeling in your stomach right before it happens?
TalkAboutIt
@TalkAboutItOrgSpicy food? Lack of sleep? Paying rent? Finding a date? Losing weight? Stress? Fatigue? Everyone has different triggers that can bring about a #seizure. What are some of yours? https://t.co/og3etO9ffE

@TalkAboutItOrgHolidays, YAY! Holidays, STRESS! Can’t have one without the other it seems. Sometimes the best gifts we get and give are ones we give ourselves. Not driving yourself nuts sounds like a GREAT gift! Especially if stress is one of your #seizure triggers. Be naughty not nice. Relax!
