My dad died from a grand mah. He had them alot and one day he went to bed, i woke up to being told he died in his bed as they found him face down arms wide open as if he was falling down and he tried to put his hands out bc he knew he was falling down or something. Sad. Miss him.
One doctor tried to hold me down when it was happening
@5:02 I just had a grand mal or general tonic clonic seizure a few days ago. I wish someone would have shoved a cloth or something in my mouth, as I nearly bit my tongue off. It is split deeply in several places and purple and blue in others. It's been days, and I still can barely stand the pain of eating!
ye yeeeeeeet
Thank you for this info. I can allow my husband and sister to watch to help them understand.
I had four yesterday. I used to have them regularly. Haven't had one since 2015. Just had four in one day. Started a new med. It causes me to hurt all over in my muscles and bones. Now I'm tired and sleepy. I do not do drugs. I do have mitrovalve prolapse and a heart murmur.
Great video. My brother has seizures. He is blind and doesn't talk with very limited sign language . So Im trying to learn more about them.Thank you !
i have always wondered if i had and continue to have seizures – before one of these things i often get weird smells some quite strong and not related to anything around me – i can get visual weirdness like tunnel vision or just not right – my voice starts to sound really squeaky up to a couple of hours before this happens – i can blank out – have fallen down but now try to get down onto something – apparently my head can twitch sometimes other times i blink a lot – i can feel like i am asleep yet awake and cant move – and both bowels and bladder have been known to empty totally – embarrassing to the extreme – my doctor has said i am just dehydrated – these sessions can be spaced well apart or i can have a couple a day – they last about 2 minutes??? – i am extremely tired after these moments – and my speech sounds slurred to me – i have had a head injury about 2.5 years ago and wonder if it is all connected
Don't forget postictal aggression and how to properly respond to it π
Thank you, a nurse student.
So we can put them on their side while they are seizing?
my friend is having a seizure(hes well known for years) and hes having one NOW in a voice chat and its worrying, hes moaning and sounds drunk/slow and its freaking me the fuck out (also had a coworker do it and that was the first time i experienced it
My partner has epilepsy. He has absence seizures and tonic clonic and disorienting stage after the tonic clonic.
Day nΓ©ed Γ₯ shot for there seizure to stop
I use Ativan for my status seizures.
thank you , this scares me had 1st one, general woke in hosp thank GOD.
very educational.
Loved it… <3 <3
This is truly a very well constructed, informative video about seizures. Thumbs up for the creator.
Do we turn the people on the side so that the breathing is okay and
nothing goes in the lungs, after the convulsions have stopped or during
the convulsions?
I had one.. new, to me
