Totally sucks lemons. Can't drive for 6 months or until I'm medically cleared to drive again. I can't really remember what happened, but apparently I had a seizure yesterday morning. Scared the crap out of my husband. I remember coming to and thinking, "who the F is in my bedroom?". It was a paramedic. (he scored 8/10 on the hotness meter) Damn! I failed most of the questions he asked me except my name and where I was, other than that I didn't know the day, the date, the month, what we ate for dinner the night before, the fact that we had decorated our Christmas Tree, I couldn't remember putting my son to bed, you know, stuff I should have been able to remember. Very frightening. I'm so grateful it happened at home and my hubby knew exactly what to do. I bit my tongue very hard, it's very swollen and hurts :( My right side has also been affected. It feels weak and sore, not sure if from the seizure or from attempts to roll me over since I was on my stomach.
I have a great support system. A wonderful family, amazing friends, an awesome caregiver for my son, more than anyone could ask for. The next 6 months are going to be rough, but things can always be worse so I'm trying very hard to keep a positive outlook. At least I live in a city and have other options. I also have a hubby who loves to drive, I now refer to him as my personal chauffeur. Driving Miss Amanda!
Wow Amanda! That must have been a scary situation! I couldn't imagine! Take care of yourself and I hope you are feeling 100% soon!
