was in this section reading threads, figured I might as well update...

oct 15 (less than an hour and a half away), marks the 1 year date of me finding out about this.

progress made?

basically none...


test after test after test. each test leads to a new test.

BUT, 21 pills a day keeps the seizures away...well...80% of the time.

gets quite embarrassing when im out at a restaurant with friends (few weeks ago) and during the course of dinner/drinks I have 5 seizures and don't even know about it until I get home and they tell me. (after waking out of one ive complete amnesia of it happening, as far as I concerned, I was just getting up from dropping something on the ground...my friends know not to tell me ive had one or else I get extremely defensive saying I didn't etc etc)

still have all my restrictions...no work, driving, scuba, shooting range, going out alone, working out/lots of physical exertion...

oct 15 2012 - 189lbs
oct 15 2013 - 158lbs due to not being able to work out etc

im supposed to be returning to work though, im no longer allowed to do my regular job, so my union has to create a job for me that accommodates to my restrictions. ive been told they've found me a job, but its just a waiting game until all the forms go through, HR talks to insurance etc, wait for my "interview" type of meeting and then return to work on a part time basis. luckily my works yard is less than 5 minutes from my house so I can just walk there.

at the rate this is going, i'll update this next year lol
