One question that a lot of people ask. Is it normal for adults with epilepsy to wear diapers. The answer is that it is a matter of preference if the person with epileptic incontinance feels it is necessary for them to wear an adult diaper. Some people are OK with wearing them, while others are turned off by the idea.
When I started having problems with incontinence it was a very hard transition because in my mind I thaught only babies and old people wear them. One day I had an acident after having a seizure in public, I wet myself and it was an embaressing moment in my life. All I knew is that I never wanted that to ever happen again. In my opinion, it is better to wear an adult diaper then it is to have an embaressing acident in public.

One thing that is a big concern for epileptics is bedroom safety, simply because a numerous amount of injuries can be caused if someone has a seizure in bed. There are things to do to prevent such injuries. One thing you can do is by bed rails that attach to your existing be frame to prevent falls. A fall from bed could result in you hitting your head leading to a seizure. Another great idea is to buy padding for the rails to prevent you from injuring yourself if you have a seizure in bed. If you have ever had to go to the ER for seizures you know about the safety measures that are taken to ensure that you don't hurt yourself during a seizure. These same bed rails pads can be purchased online. For very reasonable prices. Another great thing to have if you don't want to go the rout of buying bed rails and padding is bed fall mats.
These are great protection for if you fall out of bed to ensure that you don't hit your head on the floor. One thing I have found interesting is that there are mats that have fall alarms to alert anyone care for you in the home that you have fallen.
The main reason for this article is that I know first hand about injuries in bed. Injuries that I've had bruised arms and legs, banged head, neck pain,
and back pain. So I hope this article has been helpful. So if you or anyone you know has epilepsy, please share this article with them to help stop bedroom injuries during seizures in bed.
