Epilepsy ?
In the age of 16, one day I was playing cricket and suddenly felt unconscious and fainted. I have no clue what happened after that, but my friends told me that in the floor I was shaking and froath was coming out of my mouth. I consulted a Dr. after that and he prescribed MRI and some blood tests. After this he prescribed me Levipil 500 mg BD and Lobazam 5 mg as a precaution as he couldn't detect any abnormalities . He said there could be possibilities of epilepsy. Since then I have been taking the medicine , but during May 2021 I started decreasing the dose of the medicine and stopped taking it without doctors consultation. Everything was going well I was attending my MBBS classes . But on 03.12.2021 I had the same attack as earlier when I was bowling this time. For both the incidents I have a conclusion that both day I hadn't taken proper sleep and I had played intensely. On the same day I started taking my medicines again and went to same doctor for consultation. He said same thing.
