What I hate about the word “pseudo” is that it implies these aren’t ‘real’ seizures. And when I’ve talked to others who have been through similar in their families, it sounds like everyone ends up calling them ‘episodes’ just like we did, because heaven forbid you call them seizures when they are not ‘true’ epileptic seizures. Well, seizures can be caused by other things besides epilepsy, so why not call them that? In our case, we found (after more than a year) that a medication reaction was at least a partial cause, but from my own research and efforts to understand, I have concluded that their is definitely something neurologically going on that is triggered or exacerbated by physical or emotional stressors. For some people who are neurologically compromised, their is some cross-connection in the brain and body in response to a physical or mental stress, and like you said, just shuts everything down. Obviously, I don’t know all the medical terminology that explains it, and I believe that as medical science learns more about the brain, even doctors will have a better understanding of what is physically going on, but I felt like a read and saw enough that this is my best understanding. I don’t mean to write a book here, and I would have e-mld you privately if I could have, but just know I’m thinking of you as you care for your family, and I hope you are able to get just the best of medical care as you move forward.
