Overcoming obstacles is something we all deal with daily..Recently this past week has made me have to deal with one that I thought I had beaten…EPILEPSY.. I was diagnosed when I was 17 as I somehow had one after playing a video game. Throughout my college years I had a few and also had a few incidents where I caught myself about to have them ad could sleep it off. I’ve been taking medication for the longest for it and will even admit to not taking it at times for the sense of not feeling normal. My last episode that I really had was that of my medicine not flushing through my kidneys properly and somewhat overloading in my body..That was a few years back, and recently last wednesday morning I had one in my sleep. Not sure or positive what was the cause, could it have been overly stressful at the job, trying to train so many clients and not have time for self, maybe needing to scale back on my workouts, or was it that glass of wine before bed? Really not sure because all these things are of the born to me. What I do know is that some things I will be re-evaluating because without my own health, how will I help others..My battle with Epilepsy will go on forever medicated or not, I just pray one day there is a cure. You never know a person’s story..
