I have been diagnosed with epilepsy. I suffer from partial complex seizures (petite mal). I know that, during seizures, people with full complex seizures (gran mal) will foam at the mouth. I am not familiar with seizures where people vomit.

If you have not been diagnosed or treated for epilepsy previously then your insurance should cover it. DO NOT HESITATE. MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR TESTING IMMEDIATELY.

Seizures can be induced by several things or nothing at all. You should never drink alcohol as it can lead to seizures. A diet high in protein and fats helps. You should lessen your consumption of simple sugars like candy, white pasta, etc. Blinking lights or looking into lights - including the sun - can also cause seizures. Coming off an alcoholic drinking binge can cause seizures. You should always get a good nights sleep.

There are medications that can lessen your seizure risk. I take Depakote. By seeing an MD, you can have these meds prescribed. Please call an MD immediately and keep us informed.
Thanks for this!
