Today l was admitted in the hospital, my new neurologist wanted to know if l was having seizures and what kind. It has been a long journey but God was there every step of the way. So l called last week to see what time was my admission and what l needed to do. I received no calls so l said l will call the scheduler. She called me on Friday and said she doesn't have a bed for me and this was to be done last month when l saw the doctor. I worked in the hospital before and l know the procedure. So she calls me today and told me the doctor wasn't happy with what happened and wanted me to come today as scheduled and go through the er because she assumed l only had Medicare. And my husband is still working everyday to make sure we have the best insurance. Thank you Jesus for my husband. So l went through the er and l know if they do anything order test, start iv you have a bill from the er because the er doctor would have seen you and any test he order because the admitting doctor didn't. FYI. I worked in er. So neurologist came in and told me to please forgive him and what went wrong because he has 2 patients with the same name and l was the one. Well l forgive him because it not his fault he has staff that takes care of his patients and again l am a new patient. I only saw this doctor twice in the office. And he's very respectful, listens and caring. So l can only forgive him but the think l do like about him is he came in and said he was Sorry. You go high on my list doctor. 100%. I told them about my visit at the mayo clinic and the nurse here are saying we can go there and get a job. I here because my private care doctor retired and his replacement doctor would sign my papers to drive so they have to see if l am having seizures. I told them after my TBI l was diagnosed with seizures and now l have liver disease. And so you can have seizures with that also. But l have been on seizure meds since 1998 until just recently. Since l not suppose to take Lamictal. And l got a notification from Goodrx. Also my insurance always sends me warning of meds. I have over 400 on file. So l will show him. Then wanted to give me melatonin to relax l said no. I have my cpac machine. I have to stay up until 2am so they can record any seizures. I really like what they are doing. I ate late because we had tornado storms in my state and school was out, restaurants closing and things were shutting down. Thank God the hospital are open.i asked my doctor did you talk to my mayo doctor because anything going wrong with my liver l going back. Thank you Mayo you are number 1 in my book. And the nurses here know what l going through because the one l been talking to have autoimmune disease or a relative with liver disease. And one nurse told me there are 40 different types of seizures. Well l only know of the normal ones so l don't know where she got the rest. But l told her it hard to tell if it liver, stroke, seizure are heart because symptoms are some the same or relate or it can always be an allergic reaction. But l Thank God for family, friends, Pastor and church family all standing there with me and the doctors but the first Thank you always go to Jesus because without him l wouldn't be here. God Bless all of you and l pray you all get the answers you are searching for and the healing that only he can give. You see l started off with there was a mixup.

Hello, @techi, as your recent post was an update on your seizure situation and the monitoring you are undergoing now at the hospital, I moved it over here where you were talking with @crstyday40 and @jakedduck1 about seizures, thinking they will have some thoughts for you and provide support as you are under evaluation. @patrassi and @dawn_giacabazi also may have some input, as may @johnbishop.

You said you have to stay up till 2 a.m., @techi, for recording any seizures. Other than staying up till that hour, how is the monitoring going for you so far?

Hi Lisa @techi, sorry to hear you are back in the hospital. I'm hoping they will get to the bottom of the cause of your seizures. I wasn't aware that there are so many different kind of seizures until I started do some searching.
