Re: Grand Mal Seizures.
There are several types of medication that can control the condition (you can even drink on one or two of them).
Pretty serious stuff, I hope that your friends are getting good healthcare.

They are almost as bad as Grand Moff Tarkin.

Re: Grand Mal Seizures.
What is a grand mal seizure? Isn't it when you don't get enough booze and your body goes batshit crazy on you?

Re: Grand Mal Seizures.
also I think it's funny (not funny, ha-ha) that they are called "big bad" seizures

Those are called delirium tremens or DT's for short. Yes, once again it's Captain Obvious to the comments. D'oh!Mr. Viking wrote:What is a grand mal seizure? Isn't it when you don't get enough booze and your body goes batshit crazy on you?

Re: Grand Mal Seizures.
I've only ever had the small ones, where my mother shouts at me and I cannot move. or when i suddenly cannot write. i mean my name, not anything literary,. or when i faint and get hurt on the way down.
or get dizzy and almost drive my car off a steep road.

Re: Grand Mal Seizures.
Imagine having Tourette's syndrome. Totally incapable of controlling your urge to tell someone to take a flying dump to the moon. That would make your face misaligned and your foot in a mashed condition by an offended stranger or relative. The amazing part is that it all happened without booze.Savage wrote:Yeah, or when you fall down the stairs and break your face or fall down in the closet and break your foot. or yeah. maybe this is a major problem of mine

I didn't realize that my habit of telling people what the hell their (csa) problem was, was a syndrome.

Re: Grand Mal Seizures.
I've got a messed up story on this one.
Last July was up north at my friend's annual canoeing trip. First night everyone brings their own fifth and you drink whatever. We got super-drunk of course. Next morning we eat and drink a little water (being conservative though as the camp has no running water), then go to the place where we will canoe. We had to wait a couple hours because it was raining heavily.
Got on the river, halfway down we stopped for lunch. Because of all the rain river was very high, fast and hard to navigate. My woman and I were in kayaks. At some point we (being the back group) stopped for a smoke. I pushed everyone else off, then got stuck in 4' of mud trying to get back in my kayak. By this time I had to book it to catch up.
I caught up to 2 of my friends and everyone else was ahead of us, no one behind. Started feeling weird, next thing I know I'm waking up on the shoreline and my tongue hurts like hell. If my 2 friends hadn't been there, if I hadn't caught up to them just before that, I'd be dead right now.
Took meds for a while but I couldn't focus on high-level tasks at work. We suspect it was a combination of alcohol withdrawal, lack of sleep and dehydration (normally at home I drink tons of water). Here's to it never happening again! Cheers.
