I think I forgot to post #4, 5 and 6.
Two of them were very manageable, while the 5th one was horrible. It seems like every 3rd seizure I feel like absolute sh*t afterwards.
Weight and body temperature seem to be getting better which is a good sign. As for my mood, I'm not going to pretend, I really don't feel any different. I like that I'm putting on weight and I think it may be a precursor to a change in my mood, so we'll see.
The seizures also are beginning to wear me out. It's not the greatest feeling, but I keep reminding myself that I really need to see this through because my head is pretty messed up. And I need to get back to school and work.
I believe the drugs I use are methohexital, succinylcholine, ondasteron for each procedure. If you don't respond well to methohexital I believe they give you ketamine instead.
