kaotik said:any seizures since? and what were you doing before? had you just smoked one recently?
i'm not a doc, but i highly doubt it was from MJ.
i'm epileptic too.. that first seizure seems to just happens man, doesn't seem like any rhyme or reason to it.
i was just hanging with my buddies after skateboarding, then fell flat to the cement (yeah was great. be thankfull you didn't knock your teeth out like i did. nothing like all the doctor tests, and dentist crap too.)
i got the same results with all my testing as you, no tumour or anything gnarly, but problematic EEG's
i dunno man, the more tests and vague answers i got, the more it appeared to me that "seizure" and "epilepsy" are basicaly medical terms for "we don't know ***'s going on"
good luck with whatever you do.. take it easy for a bit, see if another comes on. like other said, stop smoking for a bit if you want, and see if it happens again when you're completely clean (my bets it will)
and if they do diagnose you with epilepsy and he gives you perscription, make sure if he gives you tigertal, you get the slow release. the regular messed me up badly.
good luck
i as well have seizures...
for 9 yrs now.. with no answer why, or what causes them.. also i have not been diagnosed with epilepsy.. but i do take a percription..
stress.. has a big factor or "triggers" my seizures..
they never asked me to quit smoking dope.. they new yes..
but quitting for 3 months and living a normal life other then the smoking will tell you for sure..
then chances are theres something in the mj that "triggers" or sets off the seizure (which basically is a chemical imbalance in the brain) i do beleive.. i am as well no doctor..
but after 9 yrs i am finally going through tests again to try and stop em.. im takin the dilantin.. i have 3 seizures a yr some times 4.. but they dont know why lol ...
its alwas nice getting the "i dont know "from the doc..
good luck.. stay safe and padded
