This is a blog about epilepsy. I have lived with seizures for 25 years now and I want to share my experiences to allow others with epilepsy a chance to compare their experiences to mine and to allow those without epilepsy to understand further the condition and how it effects one. I had the VNS device implanted 4 years ago and have posted on that extensively. Please feel free to comment and I will try to respond.

Flashing subway lights
Some people have trouble with flashing lights triggering epileptic seizures. My advice: avoid the subway. When I was in NYC, the flashing of the subway as it cruised by the platform tended to make my eyes flicker. I have never had problems with flashing lights causing seizures, but don't really want to push my luck. So after becoming somewhat dizzy at a platform, I spent the remainder of my time in NYC avoiding looking at the trains.
