Forgive the interruption and for going off-topic.
This post is intended to be informational only. I certainly don't expect everyone to be up to date on current Epilepsy terminology. But as a person with Epilepsy (Not an “Epileptic”) I'd like to briefly discuss a couple of words that were mentioned earlier related to Epilepsy. The words “fits” and “Epileptic.”
The word “fits” is inaccurate and has negative connotations as does “Epileptic” since it is a defining and stigmatizing label. A great number of people find these words offensive who have the condition. Additionally, “fits” describes only convulsive seizures which only account for 25% of all seizures.
Thank you for your understanding,
Jake
Welcome @titansofideastookevindshort, Thanks for sharing your experience and what has helped. Do you mind sharing a little more about your diagnosis, do you have a type of neuropathy?
