I think it may be what I have.
For a while now I've had an undiagnosed seizure condition.
What happens is when I push my hips forward and stretch my back, I get tingly and dizzy feeling, then lose control of my body for a few seconds. The result is usually me falling to the ground and trembling, shaking or rolling for a brief period, then feeling slightly dazed. Normally when this happens, I drop to the ground before I lose control of my body so I don't injure myself. Recently it happened without me stretching my back though, the second time its done this. That's the reason I have a sudden interest in pinpointing what's wrong with me.
I was prescribed depakote in the past and it didn't do anything for me. When I was in the Psych Ward the second time I had an EEG done and reacted slightly to the strobe light, though I never experience this behaviour in real world situations. My Chiropractor, who practices natural healing methods, hasn't been able to decude what it is herself either. So for the past 6 or 7 years I've had this condition and known nothing about it.
Recently someone told me it sounded like vertebrobasilar insufficiency, so I read a wikipedia article on it and it sounded like it could be it. It described many things I'm experiencing, but I am not as old as it makes the typical person under this condition sound, nor do a lot of the things it list seem to affect me, such as leg exercise.
Does anyone here have a similar condition, or any experience with it? I'm looking for all the info I can get, because I doubt I'll end up seeing a doctor for this. I'd like to know what it is and why it happens, but beyond them telling me that I don't know of anything else they can do for me outside of prescribing me medication I'd refuse.
