I had two seizures in the waiting room within an hour. My husband told the front desk and the doctor asked a nurse to watch me in the staff area. She came out visibly annoyed that she was forced to watch me. (she is not filmed) I had advocated to the nurse that I had epilepsy, the types, that I’m completely unaware of my seizures, and even the genetic mutation I had for epilepsy. She rolled her eyes. When I asked for my husband to sit next to me in the empty seat of the staff area, she said NO. I never saw her again. I didn’t know I had that many absence seizures until watching the videos back. She never returned. No one knew anything about me but my name. Other nurses were not told I had epilepsy and had been having seizures. We went to the emergency room for an actual emergency. My labs were terrible, my cultures were positive, and it was triggering epileptic seizures. It’s dangerous to let epileptics have clusters of seizures like this. It might not have became convulsive...
