[QUOTE="conniecar, post: 1055952, member: 188016"] Wow we are twins ! Spent 10 years in Ulverston too, so spent lots of time in Morecambe [emoji4] yes the big fits are corkers aren't they? Sometimes I could have some myoclonic ones when I woke up then I'd go to work fine, I just feel lucky that nothing happened when I was driving. I thought they were blood sugar related because they'd settle when I'd eaten.....just remember my parents sitting with Lucozade and me protesting 'in not hypo!' All very weird. I didn't think I was claustrophobic until I had an MMR but the first one I had they insisted on playing Wet Wet Wet on repeat on hospital radio ( enough to freak anyone out ) so when they let me out I burst into tears and said I couldn't go back in. Why do they say don't open your eyes, and it makes you do it? Also why do you need to scratch your nose ? Funny eh? I've not had a seizure for over 3 years now so apparently the longer it is, the less it's likely to happen. On the Epilim leaflet it said 'don't drink' so after about a year I rung the nurse and said could I ( it was Christmas and I was fed up of fending people off who eyed me suspiciously and assumed I was an alcoholic .)
