Seizures And Back Pain

One thing I have had to deal with in my life is severe back pain. After having all the covlsive seizure throughout my entire life it has really taken its tole ony my spine. Now that I am in my late 30's I have been having a lot of post seizure migrains. I have had to go to physical therapy several times throughout  my life because of this problem. The way it normaly works is that I will go to therapy for a while until everthing feels beter then in a few weeks everything hurts again. It is really bad when Medicade decides to drop me then I have to pay 15% of my bill. Normaly though I will deal with the pain when this happens. I just this year got my medicade rienstated so I'm gonna take advantage of this to get my therapy going again. Truely it is a pain in the but having back pain it seems to get worse every year.
    

Seizures In The Parietal Lobe

I just recieved my results from the MRI I had done before my surgery. The resultls said that I have mass loss in the Parietal Lobe as well as the Frontal Lobe of my brain. Now the research I was really Interested in doing was on seizures coming from the Parietal Lobe of the brain because this is wear most of my seizures are coming from according to the report from the MRI.

Here is some information I found from a site when researching.


What is Parietal Lobe Epilepsy? Parietal lobe epilepsy is a relatively rare form of epilepsy, comprising about 5% of all epilepsy, in which seizures arise from the parietal lobe of the brain. Parietal lobe epilepsy can start at any age and occurs in both males and females equally. It may be a result of head trauma, birth difficulties, stroke, or tumor, though the cause is unknown in 20% of patients. 
 Where is the Parietal Lobe Located in the Brain? The parietal lobe is located just behind the frontal lobe and it plays important roles in touch perception, the integration of sensory information and in visual perception of spatial relationships among objects (visuospatial processing). In the language dominant side of the brain (the left side for most right-handed individuals), the parietal lobe is also involved with language, planned movements such as writing, as well as mathematical skills. What are Parietal Lobe Seizures Like? Since the parietal lobe involves the processing and integration of sensory and visual perception, seizures originating from the parietal lobe can involve both sensory and visual sensations. Seizure duration varies, from a few seconds in some patients to a few minutes in others. The following are the different types of symptoms associated with parietal lobe seizures: Read the rest of the article HERE to find out more.

One other thing I did learn from researching other sites is that if damage is sustained to the Parietal Lobe, a person would most likely have difficulty reading, recognizing people and objects, and having a comprehensive awareness of his or her own body and limbs and their positioning in space. For those with traumatic brain injuries to this area, the ability to multi-task is reduced or eliminated, as is mathematical ability and recognition of the difference between right and left. To research more on this please read the article HERE. 

Now some (but not all) of these sympoms I have begon to experiace lately. But not to worry, I'm just writing this article for the purpose of edgucation.
I do however encourage you to do your on independant research for yourself. I am not a doctor nor do I claim to be one.

I hope this article is helpful. Please share this if you would like.
