Well between those three, they should be able to

figure out what is going on. I hope it is nothing

serious. Keep us informed and have a good nap!

If I can't serve as a good example, then I guess I'll just have to serve as a

horrible warning.

Norma,

I can speak from experience, I have been having seizures for apx 2 years. I have been told there is no cause besides stress. But I will tell you I don't remember taking seizure 101 at any school. They are being called pseudo-seizures, and believe me they are as real as a broken bone. The biggest thing that makes me feel good about it, is my dog Holly is a predictor. From five to fifteen mins after she lets me know to lay down it comes on. And then she will lay across my chest and wait until it is over and I fall asleep. Postictial period they call it. So even if my doctors are syeptacal my Holly believes me.....* sniffle* Debi Tarvin wrote:

The one doctor thinks it is anxiety, but I know what anxiety is and jerking around isn't one of them. Thanks for the post. I hope they find something too, then I'll know what's wrong.
