New Epileptic/Epilepsy and the Military
Greetings! My name is Phil and I was recently (4 days ago) diagnosed with Epilepsy. I am a 24 year old Lieutenant in the Navy currently deployed to the Persian Gulf. My first seizure occurred about 4 months ago. I woke up in the middle of the night and my right leg felt "asleep" and was shaking uncontrollably. The "asleep" feeling spread to my whole body, and I couldn't move,
