8 month ago I had car accident, and I was put in a medicaly induced coma to save my health and life. Thank god it worked and i am now all like before. Doctors told me i should stay away from alcohol, video games, and tiredness to not trigger any seizures. I have never had one in my life but since the incident my head hurts if i drink, play, work to much, and if i am tired. Can my potential epilepsy come from light?

So i had my first epilepsy seizure last morning , didn’t sleep that night and I played the sims on my pc and was getting kind of tired but stayed up because I didn’t wanna sleep on the day so I pulled the curtains and sat on the chair then I get a epilepsy seizure and hit my head on the desk and fell to the ground. I only got these seizures before when I have taken drugs , when I was younger, but I was 100% clean when this happened , no medication or anything so I’m really confused how this even happened. Can it be like the seizures I got from drugs a few years ago have triggered something now ? Or just because I didn’t sleep anything? Because I have been up maaaaany many nights in my life and nothing happened until last morning 🫠

I find with videos games and evens tvs it’s patterns that trigger a seizure with me anyway! Although the main cause of my Epilepsy is Malformations, the generalized seizures started as Photosensitivity/pattern sensitivity. I always blamed Sonic and Mario for Giving me Epilepsy. Playing checkers can trigger a seizure in me!

I'm mildly photosensitive and epileptic at the same time and I have Tonic Clonic (Grand Mal) seizures and what happened one time was I was on my Wii game console I was in the middle of my minigame and suddenly I started having auras and I was standing and I didn't even know it and I suddenly collapsed and I started convulsing and I had 1. Body tensing and releasing nonstop 2. Epileptic cry 3. Nausea and vomiting 4. Passing out because of the seizure And had to go to the hospital and I got a blood test done and I had to see a neurologist and be tested for epilepsy and they said they're going to place a screen in front of me and the more harder it was the brighter the flashing lights became and it suddenly got my brain to have a Tonic Clonic (Grand Mal) seizure and it was confirmed that I was diagnosed with mild generalized photosensitive epilepsy. And I was told that I have to wear blue light glasses for protection against photosensitive epilepsy.

Not sure why you would include flashing lights in a video that most likely will be watched by those that could have seizures from it.

No video games. Any flashing lights. I mean any. Loud noises also. I use noise canceling headphones which helps with the noise. I have to use my discernment such as it is to avoid any overstimulation.

I developed epilepsy after receiving the covid vaccine. Ive had 4 seizures since and 2 of which was while i was son Keppra. Keppra does help as i dont get any myoclonic seizures anymore but it doesn’t 100% prevent a seizure. I believe 2 or 3 of my seizures happened while i was gaming. my first ever seizure happened while i was out early morning and had little sleep night before. Should i stop playing video games?

I have long thought bright or flashing lights coupled with excitement (adrenaline) is the trigger for our sons seizures. Happening once every 1-2 months. Most likely ending in a grand mal event. Can a grand mal happen as a result of this type of stimulus/trigger? His current neurologist hasn’t really made that connection yet. ??
