Last year I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder/anxiety by my pcp. A few months ago I blacked out while i was?
driving home. I dont’ remember my entire drive to my house from work. a couple of weeks later I had a major emotional breakdown at work and could not calm myself down so i had to leave work and my mom picked me up from work. I was then refered to a psychologist. He said that I was fine. But wanted me to go to a neurologist. I went to the neurologist she ordered a bunch of blood tests, eeg, mri and neuropsych evaluation. The only thing that was wrong with my blood work was that my potassium was a little high and they are going to recheck within a month. The mri came back normal. the eeg showed that i had seizure activity while sleeping and awake. I was sleep deprived. Since then I have been put on medication for seizures. A couple of days after the eeg i had like a ringing in my ears and got real shaky. Last week I was in a patients room and he was talking didn’t want to be rude so i stayed in there as long as i could. My heart started pounded, started sweating and got really shaky and had a pounding headache. I then had to leave the room and went to the breakroom at work. I started shaking even worse. My coworkers said that they tried talking to me and i didn’t respond. I was completly aware of everything that was going on around me i just couldn’t respond even tho i felt like i could. I was so tired afterwords and was still a little shaky but also really hungry. I am so afraid that this is all in my head because they can’t figure out what is going on. The neuropsych eval said that my memory is great but they are going to do further testing. I feel like this is all in my head. I hate not having my license I just want them to figure out why these things are happening to me. Is it normal to be completly aware of what is going on around you while having a seizure I can still hear people?! Idk whats going on any help advice on how they read eegs, if this is a type of seizure that anybody has heard of before that would be great. the dr said possibly the emotional breakdown at work was a seizure because afterwords i was so drained. HELP ME PLEASE!

Have you ever seen an endocrinologist or had a metabolic panel done? It sounds like some of the symptoms you describe (dizzy, shaking, sweating, hunger, ringing in the ears) could be related to blood sugar problems.
called axiety, as simple as it can get. axiety is a fake cancer becouse it does so many things to your body, i hate it!!!
