And? Another. Just pile us all in the corner in a throbbing, spasming unit, we'll be alright.

*This time.  A man.  Post coming.  I'm waiting for permission to share his story.

This guy says his neurologist has SEVEN FREAKING POST OP GASTRIC BYPASS PATIENTS WITH SEIZURES POST OP so far.

"Not related!" says the doctor, "not at all!"  They are just "becoming epileptics." 

That's just what my neurologist says, even with my falling down on the floor like a fish into seizures when I never have IN. MY. LIFE. until I was very much re-arranged and very much missing nutrients. 

(Reads the post below this, I am missing nutrients, my body does not work right. In fact, this email just came to me, as I was writing about the Vit-D.  Here I was, "Oh, look - ANOTHER SEIZURE PT! in my email"  What part do we not get?!)

Fuck you, it's not related?

I have to use my F-BOMB for that.  Should I feel guilty for getting angry over this?  No.

I know I have a neurological problem and it makes it difficult for me to process, but this is my equation!

Mal-absorptive weight loss surgery + massive loss of excess weight no prior seizure disorder = seizures?  YMMV, but for too many of us, it is.  Why?  What are we missing? 

If you are having seizures after your weight loss surgery, please fill this out.
